Intro

Fires burn down everything

There’s nothing left alive

Deep inside, I feel it’s right

I’m never gonna hide!

My heart, it bursts inside my chest

The blood is running red

To bring the end is ecstasy

I’m damned if I’m set free!

Verse 1

The sudden change in seasons

Has me sweating down my back

It’s feeling like a fever dream

But I know I’m right on track

I’m focused and I’m ready

My grip is tight, I’m a loaded gun

The feelings flow inside of me

Shinning brighter than the sun

And then it all comes crashing down

Verse 2

I can see them coming

Their sights are locked on me

They want to tear me down again

And burn me in the fire

They drag me down, tear into me

To bring about the end

My mind is in a foggy haze

They pull me into that dark place

I spiral down in discontent

Chorus 1

I am in the courtyard

I can’t be redeemed

It’s a place where minds are cleansed by fire

I have fed the demons

And released the beast

The world is scorched and black

Verse 3

I have seen the gallows

Peered into my fate

If the tales hold any weight

I will lose my head

No longer feeling confident

I gotta find my way out

I’ve stared into the eyes of death

And it pointed right at me

I have nowhere left to run

(Chorus 1)

Interlude

I hear the tormented souls

They speak to me in my dreams

I’ve seen the world burn to ash

As fractions of my life lay bare – and I don’t care

Chorus 2

I’ve burned in the fire

I have been reborn

I have reached the end of another day

I have fled the courtyard

The tower rings the bell

I’ve escaped from hell!

Verse 4

The rain pours down as seasons change

I am soaked and out of breath

Demons are still chasing me

To bring about another death

The courtyard is a looming place

Filled with pain and agony

I try to make my way to you

So I can finally be set free
