Darkest Day

It’s no use now it’s gone up in flames I hear the voices but the have no names Their ashes crackle and the body’s burn Nowhere to hide Nowhere to turn Come drink my sorrow and my tears Take all my vengeance and my fear My heart will burn and light the way Lightning strikes and thunder crashes More pain than 10,000 lashes My heart will burn and light the way To your darkest day The city burns with a rusty flame Tired weak and weary frame Twist and buckle in the flames of hell Oh well Come drink my sorrow and my tears Take all my vengeance and my fear My heart will burn and light the way Lightning strikes and thunder crashes More pain than 10,000 lashes My heart will burn and light the way To your darkest day
