Stand away the dreaded burning fire
Will leave its mark for those with no desire
Stand in front of the whole creation
Face the people starved like worms
Still I'm begging for comprehension
From the ones who rule us all
On this field the dying embers soul
All around we mourn
Oh, here we come again
The stars can't find the purple sky
Long for the day be back someday
And the church
Don't let us die
Let me rest in peace
Away, a while
Our smile taken from
The hearts of brokens souls
Stand away from the fire
Destined by the fate
Let those sinners pay how they steel
For on the judgement day
How they yield
Stand in front of the whole creation
Face the people starved like worms
Still I'm begging for comprehension
From the ones who rule us all
On this field the dying embers soul
All around we mourn
Oh, here we come again
The stars can't find the purple sky
Long for the day be back someday
And the church
Don't let us die
Let me rest in peace
