Inferno
Ashmute Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Run far away.
Run far away.
Although you call for me, you can't see me.
You have to drop everything and leave this place.

Run far away.
Run far away.
I closed my eyes
To leave behind thoughts of you and I.

Please don't blame me,
For burning everything to ashes.
I wish you rain, rain,
Until I'm far enough to burn.

I'm dangerous.

Running out of breath.
Is this the moment?
Is this my last?
Don't forget me.

Run far away.
Run far away.

In the future,
Look at me in the distance.
I'll take you and leave again.
Only you.

I'm swallowing the memory of you.
Smiling as I fly away.
So our memories can last forever.

It's time for me to go somewhere.
It's time for me to go somewhere.
It's time for me to go somewhere.
It's time for me to go somewhere.

If I ever come back to you.
Will you be able to save me?




If I ever come back to you.
Will you be able to handle it?
