How you fell
You were in comforted sleep
Dead and entombed in the deep
Mistakenly called to rise from hell
Led just to find it again
I'll be your requited end
Shed like the severing skin and flesh
Step forth a martyring pyre
A blight corrected by fire
When there is no way to
Pass the test
You had the judgement and lost
Now I'm collecting the cost
So you may rest
In my hands
Your bones reborn
In cleansing flame
Are purified
When the cinders crack
They cross the great divide
When you tread into
The shadow of
A past untold, unlearned
Do you feel it piercing in your blood as it burns
Who could judge
There's none more faithful than I
Shielded from mimicry's lies
Against the heart that I hold no grudge
Writhing the firstborn of flame
The progeny hid in shame
Shadowed and left by a mother's love
Infallible and so pure
Cursed by the rats beneath her
Held by a fate you've no inkling of
The beast must consume the prey
No hope of getting away
No shield's enough
In my hands
Your bones reborn
In cleansing flame
Are purified
When the cinders crack
They cross the great divide
When you tread into
The shadow of
A past untold, unlearned
Do you feel it piercing in your blood as it burns
Eye for an eye
Lie for a lie
You can't convince me
To render aside
My poisoned bite
Cease your deception that
One such as you
Could stand out the few
To rewrite the story she's
Written in truth
Somber and soothed
No room for changes in
Such vile affairs
Crude and unfair
Thrown by divinity
Into exile
Traveling miles
Only to fall to my
True sacrifice
Bereft of light
Preyed and enticed
Now you'll be the fuel for cleansing flame
In my hands
Your bones reborn
In cleansing flame
Are purified
When the cinders crack
They cross the great divide
When you tread into
The shadow of
A past untold, unlearned
Do you feel it piercing in your blood as it burns
