lyrics

Burn Heretics, Burn

The transmutation of metals and of self,
To reap the glory forever it would bring.
Yet maybe alchemy's not my thing.

So go away with the idea to start a new colony on the sun.
And as you recline pleased with yourself,
Realize that you've torched everyone.

So go away
Go away with the idea in your mind
Despite appearance and rhetoric there are two of us,
Creating coexisting files
Betraying what's on the other's mind.
Go away with the idea in your mind
Without a compass I don't think we can survive
The two of us go down and out into the woods
And what comes out alive?

You watched the heretics burning in the night.
Expunged impurities naked to the sight
And when the time ran its petty pace
We saw your levelled face.

Go away with the idea. Abandon all your sense and go away.
