Burning Children Lyrics


How many more bloodbath benedictions?

How many more of our freedoms ripped away?

How many more bullshit moral conclusions

will they try to force us to obey?

How many more begging voices,

reaching, bleating through the sky?

How many more unanswered tears of anguish

must spill from the unblinking eye?

How many more of these holy fathers

condemming those who celebrate life's joy?

How many more of those defending "God's" honor

will be caught fucking little boys?

Here lie your Burning Children

Torn apart

Left there half-eaten

How many more of these kneeling cowards

telling us to turn the other cheek?

While they conscript laws to profit only

the worthless, the stupid and the weak

How many more of those born to become victims

demanding that we pay for their mistakes?

How many more of these drug-addicted motherfuckers

will blame those who refuse to carry their dead weight?

Here lie your Burning Children

Torn apart

Left there half-eaten

Here lie your Burning Children

Love can't save us now

Even the Word of "God"

Can't save the Burning Children

Too long has "He" forgotten

Too much has "He" forgiven

Standing by, watching the flames devour

His own children

He just let them burn

Just let them burn

Burning Children
