The child of burning time The child of burning time ♪ My only consolation is all lies The apex of my consequence is dying here tonight Winter hasn't ended, and it always looks like rain I can't remember anything, anything Inside the absolution, we succumb And appetites are bittersweet, I think I'm going numb A chance to give up avarice has marked my one regret The child of burning time is gone, and he hasn't come back yet ♪ Before I tell my story, please consider who I am I missed my window years ago, I'm doing all I can A tragedy is commonplace, but in the end, they go away My skin is still the only stain I'm left to wear in shame I cut my name into my heart I'll tear it all apart I beg you burn me away
I won't become your hero just to fight the life I save Burn me away I won't give up tomorrow just to lose it all today ♪ I burn away, I burn away I burn away, I burn away My isolation is my course The effect it has on life itself is a cancer on its source I rue the moments spent between the fetish and the flame Until this war is over, I won't ever lose my rage I cut my name into my soul I guess I'll never know I beg you burn me away I won't become your hero just to fight the life I save Burn me away I won't give up tomorrow just to lose it all today Burn me away I won't become your hero just to fight the life I save Burn me away I won't give up tomorrow just to lose it all, lose it all today
