lyrics

The old town is a-fire tonight
Behold the end to the lies
The old town is a-fire
And the night sky trembles in fright.

Oh, the flock of lemmings rushes
Toward the bittersweet
Blind-faith in messiah
That amounts to blasphemy
The crooked, greedy blessed ones
Speak of darker deeds
But in the end they all find out
That they have been deceived.

The old town is a-fire tonight
Behold the end to the lies
The old town is a-fire
And the night sky trembles in fright.

The God of light and wisdom
Has been demonized by He
The blasphemy of creation
The shepherd to the sheep
And even when the truth is told
The blind all fail to see
That the one they fall to worship
Is breeding tyranny.

The old town is a-fire tonight
Behold the end to the lies
The old town is a-fire
And the night sky trembles in fright.

When judgment comes unto your soul
Will you fail to see?
That truth is everlasting
And you have been deceived
That the world is inside everyone
And only precious few can see
And though man has known the truth before
It ails from atrophy

The old town is a-fire tonight
Behold the end to the lies
The old town is a-fire
And the night sky trembles in fright.
Do you stand in the light?
