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
