[Verse 1]
Ashes fill his lungs
Flesh is peeling away
Severed limbs around
His rage won’t let him die
[Verse 2]
A mentor turns his back
A brother is laid to rest
A dreamer turns to dust
A lover breaths a final breath
[Chorus]
I feel my body burning
My soul is split in two
Cut down and left to die
I clutch the earth in mortal terror
Blackened flesh, eviscerated
I choke on ash and curse his name
[Bridge]
Again the black savior arrives to claim his prize
A tool of destruction too valuable to lose
Destroy, dehumanize, power, control
An icon of evil, the face of sin
Destroy, dehumanize, power, control
An icon of evil, the face of sin
Destroy, dehumanize, power, control
An icon of evil, the face of sin
Destroy, dehumanize, power, control
An icon of evil, the face of sin
[Chorus]
I feel my body burning
My soul is split in two
Cut down and left to die
I clutch the earth in mortal terror
Blackened flesh, eviscerated
I choke on ash and curse his name
(Aaaaaaah!)
[Outro]
It is a grand paradox
He is more machine than man
Enslaved forever inside this black mechanical prison
In agony, doing the bidding of his foul master
