My only consolation is a lie
The apex of my consequence is dying here tonight
Winter hasn't ended and it always looks like rain
I cant 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 yet
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 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 save
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 save
Burn me away,
I won't give up tomorrow just to lose it all today
Burn me away,
I wont become your hero just to fight the life I save
Burn me away,
I wont give up tomorrow just to lose it all, lose it all today

Review about Child Of Burning Time Duh... | Reviewer: Anonymous | 5/19/09
Exactly...that just proves they ARE getting softer...they are making bottled music made to sell to a much wider market than their old fans. In other words, they felt the need to expand the number of "maggots" and to do that they had to get softer, as many more people listen to "softer" music rather than the good old heavy style of theirs.
This is by far my favorite Slipknot song off the new album!! Ive been a big fan of thiers since I first heard them way back when and Ive seen them live too many times to count. I also love how people complain thier getting soft and thier album goes straight to number one!!!
