Slowly Burning Alive

nations will rise, armies will war
what does it matter, it does not matter
seas will expand, stars will implode
whatever you’re after, it does not matter
let’s tear this thing limb from limb
pound it into the ground
we’ll cut out it’s heart
splayed and spread
wearing our death-masks, forced under-ground
now we are conscious, the silence is deafening
let’s tear this thing limb from limb
pound it into the ground
we’ll tear out it’s heart
splayed and spread
slowly, burning… alive
doomed to a fate foreseen, foretold
finally we realize, it’s far too late
entombed en masse, retribution awaits
seas will expand, stars will implode
whatever you’re after, it does not matter
let’s tear this thing limb from limb
pound it into the ground
we’ll rip out it’s heart
splayed and spread
doomed to a fate foreseen, foretold
