Album: Killer Be Killed (2014)

  • Cut from wire, blind of light, from another breed
    Realize wrong from right, turning raw inside of me
    Having visions in the sight, like cutting razor wire
    We live on through the night, night of eternal fire

    I never stopped to notice the fire in your hand
    A burning so consuming, but now I understand
    And now I'm falling, like Icarus to land
    Too late to kill the flame that I fanned

    Wings above, danger's near, they're coming down
    Flying close to the sun, you will only hit the ground
    The silence is so deafening, the end is just the beginning
    Inside the void, I hear you scream

    I never stopped to notice the fire in your hand
    A burning so consuming, but now I understand
    And now I'm falling, like Icarus to land
    Too late to kill the flame that I fanned

    Arise, arise, not so close to the sky
    Alive, alive, when you face death, you feel alive
    Kill it, kill it, channel your animal side
    Fire, fire, it's time to start a riot

    Unleash your wings
    Unleash your soul
    Unleash yourself
    From the sun

    I never stopped to notice the fire in your hand
    A burning so consuming, but now I understand
    And now I'm falling, like Icarus to land
    Too late to kill the flame that I fanned

    I never stopped to notice the fire in your hand
    A burning so consuming, but now I understand
    And now I'm falling, like Icarus to land
    Too late to kill the flame that I fanned Writer/s: GREGORY JOHN PUCIATO, MAXIMILIANO CABALLERO, TROY JAYSON SANDERS
