Burn (Unreleased)

They never took it down before
They always left it where it was
Then one fine day, someone took something away
And I decided to change their minds

Knowing sets you apart to burn
Unless you rein its trembling power
A pearl-clad shield or a weapon to wield
I decided to change their minds

Turn the handle on another door
After fear comes fear and the threat of more
But knowledge frees and rage is a key
I decided to change their minds

Justice comes like a mighty wind
In which only a few can stand
It looks so small but it unlocks us all
I decided to change their minds

Never believe in hatred
More than you believe in love
Cause hate runs deep in the gutters of the street
I decided to change their minds
