Slipknot - Child of Burning Time lyrics
[Slipknot - Child of Burning Time lyrics]
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
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 saved burn me away
I won't give up tomorrow just
To lose it all today
I'll burn away i'll burn away
I'll burn away i'll burn away
My isolation is my course
The effect it has on life it'self
Is a cancer on it's 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 saved 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 saved burn me away
I won't give up tomorrow just to lose it all
Lose it all today
