The burning of the ashes
The burning of the rain
The burning in the ways
The ways that end in pain


The burning of a flag
The burning of a dream
The burning of a body
As the body screams


The burning of a life
The burning of a day
The burning is the price
The price that we must pay


The burning never yeilds
The burning never stops
The burning go on
Untill the last shoe drops


So gather up your armor
Gather up your friends
Gather up your courage
And make the burning end


The sun shall be so bright
On that not to distant day
The day we make it stop
Make the burning go away
