This version of “Forges of the Fallen” pulls ASHCOIL into the neon underworld of cyberpunk and darksynth.
Cold synths, deep shadows, and a brooding gothic atmosphere shape a darker, more cinematic interpretation of the track.
Mechanical pulses blend with heavy electronic basslines, creating a dystopian mood that reflects struggle, pressure, and the quiet fire of rising again.

Lyrics:

We came back to the place where it all broke down,
Old steel cracking on the edge of town.
Long nights working just to make things right,
Hands getting dirty but we’re holding tight.

Every setback, every bruise we’ve known—
We’re not giving in, we’re taking it slow.

In the forges of the fallen,
We keep pushing, we keep calling.
We don’t stop when the weight comes on.
In the forges of the fallen,
We stand up, we keep walking—
Turning every lost step into a stronger dawn.

Cold wind blowing through an empty frame,
Old floors shaking but we stayed the same.
Friends turned strangers when the hard days came,
But the ones who stayed with us still carry the flame.

Every setback, every bruise we’ve known—
We’re not giving in, we’re taking it slow.

In the forges of the fallen,
We keep pushing, we keep calling.
We don’t stop when the weight comes on.
In the forges of the fallen,
We stand up, we keep walking—
Turning every lost step into a stronger dawn.

Brick by brick, and day by day,
We learn to rise in our own way.
If the world won’t lift us up,
We’ll build it back with our own hands.

In the forges of the fallen,
We keep pushing, we keep calling.
We don’t stop when the weight comes on.
In the forges of the fallen,
We stand up, we keep walking—
Turning every lost step into a stronger dawn.
