Lyrics
Life Burns
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
We break our enemies with fear, and
we've seen how the tears come around
we built our confidence on wasteland
we've seen how the walls come down
Life burns
A man dies like a butterfly
And life burns from the touch of a rebirth
Oh-oh things must pass
One love is a crooked lie
The world lies in the hands of evil
And we pray it would last
Life burns
We have no sympathy for the lost souls
We've chosen the path of disgrace
We give this life to our children
And teach them to hate this place
A man dies like a butterfly
And life burns from the touch of a rebirth
Oh-oh things must pass
One love is a crooked lie
The world lies in the hands of evil
And we pray it would last
A man dies like a butterfly
And life burns from the touch of a rebirth
One love is a crooked lie
The world lies in the hands of evil
The world lies in the hands of evil
The world lies in the hands of evil
The world lies in the hands of evil
The world lies in the hands of evil
A man dies like a butterfly
And life burns from the touch of a rebirth
Oh-oh things must pass
One love is a crooked lie
The world lies in the hands of evil
And we pray it would last
A man dies like a butterfly
And life burns from the touch of a rebirth
Oh-oh things must pass
One love is a crooked lie
The world lies in the hands of evil
And we pray it would last
Life burns
Life burns
