do you want us to paint pain with sugar and spices , light the candle , pass the flame , no matter if it burns , because you ' d rather ignore the lyrics , and now the candle ' s burn ' t down , and we ' ve been paint ' d with gold , rich with the suffering of millions and the silenced screams , because you refuse to confront the mirr ' r that faces the wall , in the corner of your blindfolded room . aren ' t you proud ? seraph ?
