A slow demise, the end of innocence Lost within the shadows A mind decayed, plagued with uncertainty Could this be the end? Beyond the cries, rests a heavy heart And there's no time for mourning Accepting fate, hating the world we see The final days, the end Oh, spit in your soulless face Take my faith to the pyre Oh, I will not beg or yield Commit myself to fire Fire, to the fire There will be a day When sorrow subsides Our heads in the dirt In our beds of burden Where spirits can die In fear lies strength, I hold my head up high Through the crowd I'm stumbling So be it fire or at the Gallows end My soul still carries on Oh, I shan't repent my sins I bow down in sorrow Oh, in the end I'll burn And I'll haunt you in your nightmares Fire, higher, higher There will be a day When sorrow subsides Our heads in the dirt In our beds of burden Where spirits can die There shall come a day When sorrow subsides Our heads in the dirt In our beds of burden Where spirits can die
