Gothic Metal × Shamisen Meets Fusion Vol.2 Front Cover

Lyric

Prayer Beneath the Ashes

Elven Echoes

In the ashes, I still pray

For the dawn that fades away

Through the smoke, your name remains

Echoed softly, bound in chains

I held your ghost in trembling hands

As silence drowned the shifting sands

A crimson tear fell through the flame

Whispering sorrow, calling your name

Underneath the hollow sky

I beg the night to let me die

Prayer beneath the ashes

Where the fallen hearts still burn

Even gods forget our faces

Still we wait, and still we yearn

The moonlight weeps on shattered stone

I walk this graveyard all alone

Shamisen bleeds a mournful tune

A requiem beneath the moon

Rise again, my shadow bride

From the fire we’ve denied

Turn the pain to sacred flame

Sing my prayer, and speak my name

Prayer beneath the ashes

Tears and blood forever burn

Through the storm of endless sorrow

We are lost, but still return

When the stars forget the sky

I will still remember why

In the ashes, love remains

Silent, sacred—through the pain
