Child Of Burning Time

Slipknot - All Hope Is Gone

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 (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

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
