Burning down, we can't stop it,
We gotta get out, start again,
Our memories are gone forever,
Don't try to turn this around on me,
I'm the one that saved you
This was my own, this was my life
It's not always just about you
And as I heard, the sirens begin to chime,
I can feel my heart begin to race.

I can see through the flames that the fire cleanses me,
Mind and soul, now the same
And my body guides the way.

I threw you over my shoulder
With the angel on my other
I'm not your hero,
I'll never be what you wanted, what you thought I would be.

I can see through the flames that the fire cleanses me,
Mind and soul, now the same
And my body guides the way,
I can see through my tired eyes my sickness controls me
Deep inside, I know this,
I know this is the mother of deceit.

And they you were,
6 years old, ashes in your hair,
You're not scared; you've seen so much pain in so few years,
As the world [bad word] a place where no one wants to stay,
We remain silent until it's too late.

And as I see the flames that go in the sky,
I can feel [bad word] to the end.

I can see through the flames that the fire cleanses me,
Mind and soul, now the same
And my body guides the way, (and you're burning)
I can see through my tired eyes (down my life so slowly)
My sickness controls me (I know in my heart)
Deep inside, I know this (I know this)
Is the mother of, x2
Is the mother of deceit.
