Modern Savage

The life force of ancient Fathers throbs in my veins
Every heartbeat a drumbeat, loud, deep, shaking my chains
Wild, untamable, incorruptible mystery of life 
Hidden behind a mask of pretentious, cultivated lie

A furnace burning with a fire of creative, destructive power
A soul of lava, shooting out sparks - nighttime meteor shower
Flames of the depths with flames of the heights 
I call on you to unite, and light up the darkness of the nights
