Dead Conscience - Skinless

To be named, we’ve come to the flames

To seek a judgment, to tell a fortune

It’s hard to change, you cannot get away

The further you run the quicker it finds you

Seeds in seeds to be, the past is now and the future’s gone

Still trying to figure out what went wrong

A ritual to be burned by flames

A plea for peace and a prophecy to fulfill

We build our live upon a legacy of lies

The past is now and the future’s gone

Creation myth, we should all be dead

I always dreamed I would see this day

Relax and watch the world fade away

Guilt is a plague and it must be destroyed

Suffer because we cannot change

Cower and hide, from things in your mind?

Pick yourself out of that corner and fight

We struggle on, fighting against instinct, we’ve fought for so long

Instinct is not truth, steps away from taking it back

With few words, or none at all unravel the threads, prepare for the fall

A circle is made with no points on all sides

Deciding the truth and directions we’ll find

Guilt is a plague and it must be destroyed

Suffer because we can not change

Cower and hide, from things in your mind?

Pick yourself out of that corner and fight

Seeds in seeds to be, we build our lives upon a legacy of lies

Destiny is completely ethereal, far away but close to the flames

I walk the earth, but my conscience is dead
