"Burnt To A Shell" lyrics

"Burnt To A Shell"

It's been a long cold lonely ride
The blood takes the lead on down the line
Some knew it well, some never tried
To go down that dark and crooked mile...

I've seen his weary eyes. I've walked that feed kill chain
My love it's been a while but I'll be there again

So when I die, lead my remains into the fire
So that my soul flies, and I reach the end of the line
Burnt to a shell...

I know a deep dark secret - I know a lie
I learned well how to bend brake steal and pry
But in the back of my mind I always knew
It only hurts awhile 'til it burns you through...

Sen me another mile down. Complete the divine
Everything must go. I'll know when it's my turn to ride

So when I die, lead my remains into the fire
So that my soul flies, and I reach the end of the line
Burnt to a shell...

Hell is my desire for truth and pride
I will love
I will live
I will not be controlled no more

So when I die, lead my remains into the fire
So that my soul flies, and I reach the end of the line
Burnt to a shell...
