Burnt To Ashes lyrics

You push me out to the circus ring The crowd devours my horror I'm looking for some sympathy in their eyes Where humanity lived A complacent smile is on your face You're almost a national hero I still believe This must not be the end And I am alone among the brutal, jubilant crowd You cast me for tearing to pieces To them, hungry and mad Still: You are not the first You are not the last Salvation is on fire It will transform your flesh into ashes // Listen to my last wish: close my eyes before I don't wanna know, don't want to see All I feel, all I feel before oblivion Is eternity in the last step The crowd is celebrating my death Enjoying my suffering I'm between two worlds within fire's breath Choking with my scream Still: Upwards on steps You are going to death It's not your fault So quiet, isn't it? Forgive me now, it's time It's time for the show // I've not believed That I can return This flame forever will be in my immortal stolen soul And I'm being burnt alive, burnt to ashes for this show Still: No repentance, my hands in blood It's so late, I interrupt the life Northern wind shrill and cold will erase my shame as if it never was Expiation is on fire I feel pain, so I wait, infernal fire waits /
