New Burn Order

Remember when you said
I'd amount to nothing
Remember when you let me fall
Set fire to the walls

The world crashed all around me
Losing it all
You watched me burn

But a fire will burn faster uphill
You said you were ashamed
To share my DNA

I'm sorry to tell you
We are counterparts
Mirror image, blurred view
Set fire, set me ablaze

And let me heal
The empty space
We are the sons and we are ready

Drifting away
We are, we are the sons
I can't seem to shake your chains
Tightly bound to my aching frame

You weigh me down
The counterweight, the counterbalance
Our mutual pulse shattering through my chest
Grass no longer greener

The ash reveals remains of non-believers
You watched me burn
But a fire will burn faster uphill
You said you were ashamed

(A fire burns)
To share my DNA
(You weigh me down)
Set fire, set me ablaze
And let me heal

The empty space
Set fire, set me ablaze
And let me heal
The empty space
In my heart

We are the sons and we are ready
Drifting away
We are, we are the sons
We are, we are
We are the chosen ones
We are, we are
We will come home

Set fire, set me ablaze
And let me heal
The empty space
Dowsed in kerosene
(Fated mirror)

This hollowed structure set alight
(Watch me fall)
Time itself stood still
(Jaded father)

Not knowing how to begin to heal
(Hallowed stone)
Now you watch me turn
Hallowed be our throne
