lyrics

I'm still feeling
I'm still living

We've been working on the mill for a long time
Mindless puppets of the kingdom in the skies
Lifes were drained to the core before my eyes
Fighting fire with fire, this new flame I'll ignite

For my sacrifice will set him free

Finding the last beam of light inside him
Hoping to clear the darkness in his mind
I still can't believe how could he've turned heavenward
Will my sacrifice stop the clockwork from turning?

After all these years, few still stand against thee
Piercing through his mind I'll reach the remnant being
Past will come back to light, present will haunt him
A newborn martyr will set us free

For his sacrifice will set us free

Finding the last beam of light inside him
Hoping to clear the darkness in his mind
I still can't believe how could he've turned heavenward
Will my sacrifice stop the clockwork from turning?
