BLACK IN THE BURN

Stranger in a foreign land I reach for you so take my hand Torn inside I give the best I can Crave to feel and throw the dice We'll make another sacrifice Bring me the light, show me paradise Forever fighting in this shadow land Come wind, rise fire Cool wind, warm fire Inspire me to live Cold rock I know you From my years of pain I must find my strength again And the story will be told After life has been broken My voice will return Melting the steel, close to the sun Dreaming away from this nightmare A digital world where everyone feeds on lies Falling from grace, the human race Religion can never unite us Only a few will stay on the barricades When the news are heard About the fallen bird Sing my song so you can remember I just wanted to be here forever you see To create my soaring melody And I'm black in the burn Over the edge to the other side Your enemy waits in the darkness You must be strong and prepare for a change in time Heaven is hell, no one can tell Illusions of holiness blind us A fragment of time is all that you'll ever know When the news are heard of the fallen bird Sing his song so you will remember He just wanted to be here forever you see And create his soaring melody Deep in the cold, is it the end, I surrender to you Always a mystery, destiny Far from home we're all alone Heavy heart, no escape Death will take us all away Down in my darkness fights the demon in me Can you hear me now I'm sending madness, madness from below No one can save the warrior soul... no Welcome to this nightmare When the news are heard of the fallen bird Sing his song so you will remember He just wanted to be here forever you see And create his soaring melody We crave to feel and throw the dice It's just another sacrifice Black in the burn There's no returning Turning black in the burn
