I Was Meant to Burn
Steel-and-fire mantra about surrendering to transformation in the desert. The Man and the Temple rise, fall, and rise again — a reminder that some part of you was always destined for the flame.
About this track
“I was Meant to Burn” circles the image of the Man and the Temple as both sacrifice and release — a loop of destruction, rebuilding, and the quiet realization that some part of you was always destined for the flame.
Lyrics
Lost in the desert, Lost My mind,
Steel and fire covering my crime
Reared in Steel burn it hot burn it down burn it now
Reared in Steel burn it hot I need to burn it now
raised in fire and steel, raised to burn it all
raised in fire and steel, raised to build it all
raised in fire and steel, raised to burn it all down
burn it all down
burn it all down
burn the man
burn the temple
burn it all down
fire in the desert, steel in my heart
fire in the desert, steel in my heart
fire and steel, fire and steel everywhere
burn the man
burn the temple
burn it all down
burn the man
burn the temple
burn it all down
lost in the desert, i see a fire in the distance,
I know I was meant to burn
burn the man
burn the temple
burn it all down
burn it all down
burn it all down
burn the man
burn the temple
burn it all down
burn the man
burn the temple
burn it all down
lost in the desert, i see a fire in the distance,
I know I was meant to burn
burn the man
burn the temple
burn it all down
burn the man
burn the temple
burn it all down
Lost in the desert, Lost My mind,
Steel and fire covering my crime
burn the man
burn the temple
burn it all down
dowwn
burn the man
burn the temple
burn it all doooowwn
lost in the desert, i see a fire in the distance,
I know I was meant to burn
burn the man
burn the temple
burn it all down
burn the man
burn the temple
burn it all down
