Lyrics for Essence

Essence calling out Essence calling out Sadness guises tones Ancient world's forgotten song Essence calling out Essence calling out The old smell fills my lungs Burning, burning, burning Burning flesh Ashes of children Blowing in the wind Essence calling out Essence calling out Essence calling Essence calling Essence
