13 Years

Born again through flame
Blinded by my kindled pain
Deepest roots, tainted by sin
Washed along my burial kiln

Lay me to sleep
Come listen close to the secret I keep
Let me lay bare
Through you my torment of fire

My innocence
Raped in vain
As I die, may I
Finally now call out his name

Blind & bound
To the bark of my hospital grave
As the shadows dress in pearly white
For all their might I could not be saved

Mother, Father
I did my best
Now is my time
To lay me to rest

Pursue my pain
Against the arrow of time
For 13 years
I've struggled
To die

13 years living by the blade
Only to slowly wilt & fade

Who knew fire could buy silence
For all we know is the taste of violence

Who knew fire became my sentence
This life on earth as my final silence
