Lyrics
[Verse 1]
An invitation to clairvoyance
It's hard to stand around and watch while they ignore us
She is dumped on
Used as an ashtray
At the expense of an organized association
I see the stones on the path we laid
It's a question of tomorrow
We like to breathe the ancient wind that we have followed
A perfect fire to burn the land
Before they knew it
The sun had fallen
Boiling the water where the Hydra was crawling
The righteous go in blazing fury
[Verse 2]
And we cleanse the earth to bring it down
Bring it down
[Verse 3]
And God will watch it burn
Releasing souls
Releasing souls again
Within the wrath we wait
To be dirt again
[Verse 4]
There is a flame I lit
I upon high
