Sorrowseed - Flowers to the Furnace lyrics

rate me

The fires of the civilized world&sparkle in the evening shade

The comforts warm the creatures She made&

Leeches form the webs&that provide their peace

Cities borne of desires and caprice&

Like Flowers to the Furnace

Beauty ebbs away

Wonders put aside

Thrown to yesterday.

I remember when

Times of better men

Paradise denied

Never to return again.

The modern world no longer has life or death

Only addiction and the fevered dreams of a purpose to fulfill&

It must be what theyve always wanted

To surrender their will

And keep the world so still& so still&

(And kill the world&kill&kill.)

(Immolation&)

Burning the cradle of the earth helps them fall asleep

Burying themselves in falsehoods too deep.

Progress is the call that has led to this

Forgetting who they were in the name of bliss.

Like Flowers to the Furnace

Consuming everyone

Nothing ever grows

Nothing can be won

I remember when

Before they drank the chemicals

So long ago

Now forever condemned.
