The soul of the nation slowly withers In the howl of the empty wind As the spring lays crushed beneath the hammer The invisible flame My vision sears the crowded square As the mouth of injustice grins This routed Fire runs through my veins I choose to expire As the steel in my nerve sets in You're all on the brink of compromise I carry the cries Mass concessions in defeated eyes In my end a new world begins A terrible kindness to break the thrall It's not me who dies I strike the match And let it fall Oppression, injustice, self-immolation I am the inferno I am legion. Oppression, injustice, self-immolation I am the inferno I am legion. I am the inferno I am legion. Some run screaming Some sit silently An agonizing gift of charred humanity My footsteps They will echo through eternity A seismic scorching outcry of indignity I write my blackened name, carved into the wind I fill your hearts with rage I leave you ash and legend. Fire runs through my veins A terrible kindness to break the thrall Fire runs through my veins Oppression, injustice, self-immolation I am the inferno I am legion.
