Burn the Sky

The heat is rising fast and furious The midnight air is warm and dry Take a few drags and drop the mortars It's OK if you want to die The insignificant blaze you've conquered Chest out, chin up, sixth marine So damn confident, so experienced I can't handle it, kill my fear But who are you to decide Who lives, who burns, and who dies You're not the one to be so bold Making decisions only God should hold Burn the sky, born to die You end a bloodline generations at a time Burn the sky, left to die A cloud of souls rises up to veil the moon And burn the sky Under cover on the horizon The blackened quilt of deep despair The path of a beast that's ever hungry The more it eats the bigger the better than Trained for the battle The warriors in gear The bravest of the brave Have given lives right here But who are you to decide Who lives, who burns, and who dies You're not the one to be so bold Making decisions only God should hold Burn the sky, born to die You end a bloodline generations at a time Burn the sky, left to die A cloud of souls rises up to veil the moon And burn the sky
