Consumed by a fire That burns for every single breath Every single beat Of every heart Fending off death Not the death by an accident A ****** One's age Death by suicide Walking into the Devil's cage You think everything's fine When in reality you're dying What you need is to quit shying Away from the one who's been prying Into your heart The depths of your being Only to save you From the death that's been clinging Each act cleverly placed Your motivation erased So that you would stop the chase And fall flat on your face But you make sure That you land on your knees Right at the feet Of the one who set you free

Yearning For a Generation
Consumed by a fire That burns for every single breath Every single beat Of every heart Fending off death Not the death by an accident A ****** One's age Death by suicide Walking into the Devil's cage You think everything's fine When in reality you're dying What you need is to quit shying Away from the one who's been prying Into your heart The depths of your being Only to save you From the death that's been clinging Each act cleverly placed Your motivation erased So that you would stop the chase And fall flat on your face But you make sure That you land on your knees Right at the feet Of the one who set you free
