[Verse 1]
A mind lost within its own self
Existing to feed its hunger
Your body: hollowed, empty shell
Awaiting feed of the ages
[Verse 2]
Darkness will cover the mind
Casting a shade on reasoning
Immolation of the human self
Conflagration of the ego
[Bridge]
Burn in your own hell
Life: grand holding cell
[Pre-Chorus]
Two become as one
One become a slave
[Chorus]
Burn the eye to blind
Keeping truth from mind
Breathe in the life
Breathe in the lie
[Verse 3]
No longer are you human
Just a leech of the addiction
Loathing till insanity
Mental deterioration
[Bridge]
Burn in your own hell
Life: grand holding cell
[Pre-Chorus]
To destroy the faith
In humanity
[Chorus]
Burn the eye to blind
Keeping truth from mind
Breathe in the life
Breathe in the lie
[Breakdown]
Life shell-shocks your empty shell
Hatred for those privileged, unlike you
You think you will win
But you can't face the system of
Self-destruction
Life skins mind, bleeding dry
Hatred for the self and the life
[Guitar Solo]
[Pre-Chorus]
To destroy the faith
In humanity
[Chorus]
Burn the eye to blind
Keeping truth from mind
Breathe in the life
Breathe in the lie
[Outro]
Burn the eye to blind
Keeping truth from mind
