They always lie but can't deny what you were always meant to be
Within these broken dreams your destiny inside not always what it seems
And you walk alone down the path you forge not always of your own
Death it knows your name it follows you, you cannot see you are the same
And on and on I can't go on into the flames
I see you now and feel the power once again
Trial by fire
Your skin it burns
Meet your messiah
This genocide
It can not last
You'll meet your maker
(His face in the blast)
And on I run into the sun
Falling far away
So you wear your crown a hidden face a mask you wear just for the crowd
But they lay and bleed from the lies you told fulfill your selfish need
But I can't compromise they all fall away and stand alone in your eyes
Beneath the burning night into the cosmos of your never-ending life
And on and on I can't go on into the flames
I see you now and feel the power once again
Trial by fire
Your skin it burns
Meet your messiah
This genocide
It can not last
You'll meet your maker
(His face in the blast)
And on I run into the sun
Falling far away
And return where it all begun
On my starting day
See your redemption fight your fight and see the past you did undone
For you have sealed your fate control the balance of the light and spread your hate
The sea the crimson tide on the backs of the four horsemen you will ride
A blind and lifeless stair behind the masses of the dead despair
And on and on I can't go on into the flames
I see you now and feel the power once again
Trial by fire
Your skin it burns
Meet your messiah
This genocide
It can not last
You'll meet your maker
(His face in the blast)
