Carry the Torch

Passion burns with a fiery vengeance We are the eye of the storm An equivocal static destruction Bleeding out false idol swarms Possession and lacking in foresight Bathing in your vanity A force-fed, misled, tainted image Choking on depravity By design, I despise The kingdom will divide Evolution disillusioned A pawn in kings disguise Over the edge, I want to believe I want to preserve this legacy Do you mean what you say In the “art” you create? You’re digging your grave My helpless enemy Insincere, corrosive incarnates Fallacy in empty lines A prophet lost in personal fortune Corrupting all receptive minds This gallant flirtation No reverence Though we were born together Fraudulent, you remiss Too fragile to exist Contaminate, eradicate Disciples of this gift Over the edge, I want to believe I want to preserve this legacy Do you mean what you say In the “art” you create? You’re digging your grave, my helpless enemy The rain will wash away the blood And all the gears will start to rust In vain you destroy all I’ve loved For them, I sing this threnody Tie the noose Tie the noose Repeat the cycle Born a stray, you are unnatural You are a slave You know nothing of anger You know nothing of pain You know not of how the path that you walk was paved Now you bask in your pity From the wrath of shame For too long you have lived with your facade unscathed Over the edge I want to believe I want to preserve this legacy Do you mean what you say In the “art” you create? You’re digging your grave My helpless enemy The rain will wash away the blood And all the gears will start to rust In vain you destroy all i’ve loved For them I sing this threnody Carry the torch We will carry the torch Ignite the world I rest my faith in flames
