Child of Burning Time...
Child of Burning Time...

My only consolation is a lie
The apex of my consequence is dying here tonight
Winter hasn't ended and it always looks like rain
I can't remember 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
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 (x4)

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
