The Heretic (The Lost Child)

These fits of depression are torturing me
The lives that I seen won't breath again
A sad child of madness, they'll never be free
Born again to die, the agonies begin

And soldiers keep coming, like warriors they die
But gang land's alive when mothers cry
'Cause hate's blind addictions, a killing machine
And it burns on the fuel of shattered lives
(Lost child, lost child)

The seeds of all evil are sown in their minds
And harvest the sad fields of woe
'Cause dead boys are martyrs that live on forever
But now it's too late for their souls

I'm standing on sanities too fragile edge
And worship the "Lord of the Flies"
And wade through the slaughter, you've made of thy brother
And drown in his blood then when he dies

You see in their eyes they're the lost child
See in their eyes
You see in their eyes they're the lost child
See in their eyes

Don't turn out the lights 'cause there's demons in the night
And they prey on the fears in us all
They hide inside and wait, and they shun the light of day
The screams in their dreams fill us all

Children of a night, such a sad tune they rhyme
The bloody boys that sing a wicked song
And for all of them, they're just memories in the wind
Ooh-ooh

Oh, rise and see, it's the down of insanity
Keeper of the gates of fire
And the Heretic has said, you don't have to be afraid
'Til I, until I come to get ya

And child in time, on the sword's edge you ride
And cast a spell of Heresy
And die in vain, like a wild dog in chains
And no one can save or set you free, yeah

You see in their eyes they're the lost child
See in their eyes
You see in their eyes they're the lost child
See in their eyes
