An ember burned
A fire inside of me
And then it turned
Into an empty sea
It was then I felt a breeze
Crawling over me
Whispers chanting in the wind
Beckoning me
Come and satisfy your lust for gold
Indulge in luxury until you're old
Live a life just for you if you're so bold
Just plant the seed and watch your fruits unfold
Curiosity starts to set in
Temptation sinks it's teeth into my skin
I'm entranced by the voices within
Convincing me to manifest this sin
I stare straight into my ghost
An embodiment of what I hate the most
But behind it lies my deepest cries
Immortalized in fire light
Burning brightly just to spite me
My ever fading conscience plagues me
The seed of envy grows within me
I can't remember why
I felt so insecure before I arrived
I am under a spell
Entranced beneath this veil
Yet I lack the desire to escape this hell
No more hiding from my sins
I feel my conscience become thin
I embrace this impudence
No more need for sentiment
No more hiding from my sins
I feel my conscience become thin
I embrace this impudence
No more need for sentiment
I don't wanna fight this fire today
Can't I stay here just to get away
I'm blinded by this escape
I don't ever want to leave this place
So I'll just lie here talking in the wind
There's no one else around to call a friend
Just the cries of souls cast aside
They sealed their fate the same as you and I
