In my kingdom of dust and ash
Here we stand again at last
See the burn marks on the concrete
Promise of my destiny

You taught me to hate me
Burn me alive in your sermons
You want me to haunt me
Screaming out in tortured tongues
Deny you, defy you
Now this has gone far beyond
I watch you erase you
Inside the lines of your want

Light all the torches, burn me at the stake
Burn all the edges, and sever the day
The cloak the dagger shadow all you say
Holes in your hand burn your mark in my face

If I come back again
Back from the dead
I'll bear the weight on my head
I have a lifetime to find a place for these bones
Burn your mark in my skin
May you come back again
Back from the dead
Let's count the bodies again
Light the torch
I won't burn to death alone
Burn your mark in my skin

At the last I'm God forsaken
Prison of flesh I've made it
Filthy bag of bones He did create
See the Mark of Cain upon my face

You taught me to hate me
Burn me alive in your sermons
You want me to haunt me
Screaming out in tortured tongues
Deny you, defy you
Now this has gone far beyond
I watch you erase you
Inside the lines of your want

Light all the torches, burn me at the stake
Burn all the edges and sever the day
The cloak and the dagger shadow all you say
Holes in your hand burn your mark in my face

If I come back again
Back from the dead
I'll bear the weight on my head
I have a lifetime to find a place for these bones
Burn your mark in my skin
May you come back again
Back from the dead
Let's count the bodies again
Light the torch 
I won't burn to death alone
Burn your mark . . . 

In my skin

Burn you
Burn it all
Earth bleeding out as I burn at the stake
Skin falls away and I'll shriek in my grave
Burning in hell until death do us part
I'll see you there, and we'll scream

IN THE DARK
