Burn me alive This place is dead to me A breeding ground of tragedy My enemies at my arms length A dark past right at my heels This place is the death of me With its familiarity Breathing down my tired neck In the company of the sick Burn me alive This is not Hell but you can see it from here In the place I have grown to fear Where devils laugh and angels cry Where light and dark collide The red sky is searing me Swallowing my serenity Where hatred makes its nest Inside my hollowed chest There's nothing sacred here In the valley of solitude We take pain with gratitude There's nothing sacred here Where death has gone to hide Where light and dark collide There's nothing sacred here
