This song's lyrics are as sharp as the razor's edge. Is' a complex theme the one put on line here. Taylor speaks of deified figures in someone's life -I'm not talking about idols, no, someone close to yous is more like to possess that role, the who KNOWS that he/she is not good for your mental health, as you BELIEVE he/she is....
Child of Burning Time
Lyrics
Child of burning time
Child of burning time
My only consolation is all lies
The apex of my consequence is dying here tonight
Winter hasn't ended and it always looks like rain
I can't remember anything, anything
Inside the absolution we succumb
And appetites are bittersweet I think I'm going numb
A chance to give up Avarice has marked my one regret
The child of burning time has gone, he hasn't come back
Before I tell my story, please consider who I am
I missed my window years ago, I'm doing all I can
A tragedy is commonplace but in the end they go away
My skin is still the only stain I'm left to wear in shame
I'll cut my name into my heart
I'll tear it all apart
I beg you, burn me away
I won't become your hero
Just to fight the life I saved
Burn me away
I won't give up tomorrow
Just to lose it all today
I burn away
I burn away
I burn away
I burn away
My isolation is my course
The effect it has on life itself is a cancer on its source
I rue the moments spent between the fetish and the flame
Until this war is over, I won't ever lose my rage
I cut my name into my soul
I guess I'll never know
I beg you, burn me away
I won't become your hero
Just to fight the life I saved
Burn me away
I won't give up tomorrow
Just to lose it all today
Burn me away
I won't become your hero
Just to fight the life I saved
Burn me away
I won't give up tomorrow
Just to lose it all, lose it all today
