Burning City

A waking horror
Their living nightmare
I stand before them
I am death
I am what they dread
The monster in their heads
Nothing can stop me
From crushing all I see
I hear the screams they cry
The racing beats of hearts
They call out for a savior
But none will come
Their world begins to crumble
The sky rains down in red
The ash begins to blow
As the waves of death start to flow
Burning city
Searing, melting human flesh
Burning city
Nothing survives the flames
The cowards they try and run
In hopes to save their lives
The sky rains down upon them
Trapping them in
They have no chance in hell
I'll burn every last one
From atop my throne of ash
I'll watch this whole damn world burn
Burning city
Searing, melting human flesh
Burning city
Only I survive the flames
My world is one filled with oceans of ash
Screams of torment
Skies of fire and death
