The Creed

You wait for the sun to rise
Exploding sulfur to bring the high
You've done it a million times
What's one more day and one more night
You say that
You've had enough of this feeling
I ache for you
One day you'll find the truth
It takes one lie
To change your mind
And then you'll be "made new".

We won't be burning
We won't be burning

Death is not the Creed
That will define you
Tear away the pain
And let it guide you
Left behind, internalized
The days behind us are made new

The Metamorphosis is failing
Invoking their own proof
They take their time
Just to sanctify
But the fear will rot the fruit

You can run from this
You can run from them

Death is not the Creed
That will define you
Tear away the pain
And let it guide you
Left behind, internalized
The days behind us are made new

Haunted by the pain
Of the familiar
Branded by disgrace
I'm a survivor
Rays of light materialize
The days behind us are made new

You won't be fighting anymore
Or face the execution
Of life in disillusion

Haunted by the pain
Of the familiar
Branded by disgrace
I'm a survivor
Rays of light materialize
The days behind us are made new

We won't be burning
We won't be burning
