lyrics

Nothing else on mind but
To play back the aftermath
Of choosing a road to riot
Driving down a sociopath
Now you can't think in here
Now you can't breathe in here

Abusive father inferior
They begged for the knell
Made them dream of a next life
By making this one hell
The hot air dries it all
The ground gives way
Though we see the body fall
Only the flesh will stay

Red, red
White, white
Red, red
White, white
This is all that goes through your head
When you're slowly burning to death

As the sun descends
So too the sandy eyes
His angel lungs gave out
His Hyde would agonize
I knew you were no man
No room for one more crime
His Hyde was shut down as
Another voice began to climb

I
I've had to wait
In this fetid sack
'Til I could liberate
All my buried secrets
From your old lies
And then a violent tear
Threw viscera to the skies
The skeleton
Stood upright
At last the true self
Presented in starlight

Red, red
White, white
Red, red
White, white
This is all that goes through your head
When you're slowly burning to death

Red, red
White, white
Red, red
White, white
This is all that goes through your head
When you're slowly burning to death
