When December Burns

Cold like a stone Rise to the unknown I now drown in despair When December burns Locked in one's mind My state of being, denial Drag me away with your toxin This bliss lasts just for one moment What's left of this world Where's your true purpose These flames seem to wait atop a hill Breath to the wind I'm built up with sin What can you find beneath my ashes See hope in others eyes This earth leaves nothing to thrive Living beside the dead Upon stacks of burial mounds My skin starts to boil The stench is too grim to bear But now there's no turning back I will not perish in dissent Cold like a stone Rise to the unknown I now drown in despair When December burns Where's your god Where's your faith when we all die the same The smoke now rises, the sky turns pale This is my end my farewell Your life leaves nothing for me Burn me again and again I stand alone on this hill Flames succumb all around Black like coal In the unknown I now burn in December
