Child of Burning Time

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
