Light A Fire 05:55
Staring at the street light, In the pouring rain. No traffic signs, To light her way. So breach those steps, And sit for a while. You're the only one, For miles and miles. So, Light a fire a flame, A fire a flame. Light a fire a flame, A fire a flame. Burn the things that gave your fame, Burn the things that cause you pain. Light a fire a flame, A fire a flame. Light a fire a flame, A fire a flame. Burn the things that gave your fame, Burn the things that cause you pain. And when the fire is out, When it knocks you down. And from the ash, You start again. Stuck outside, nowhere to go. You want this road to be yours and I want to fly. Stuck outside, nowhere to go. You want this road to be yours and I want to fly. Suddenly she sees it, The rain has stopped. The clouds have gone away, And the sun comes up. She rushes down the steps, And begins to smile. Headed towards the light, For miles and miles. So, Light a fire a flame, A fire a flame. Light a fire a flame, A fire a flame. Burn the things that gave your fame, Burn the things that cause you pain. Light a fire a flame, A fire a flame. Light a fire a flame, A fire a flame. Burn the things that gave your fame, Burn the things that cause you pain. And when the fire is out, When it knocks you down. And from the ash, You start again. Light a fire a flame, A fire a flame. Light a fire a flame, A fire a flame. Burn the things that gave your fame, Burn the things that cause you pain. Light a fire a flame, A fire a flame. Light a fire a flame, A fire a flame. Burn the things that gave your fame, Burn the things that cause you pain. And when the fire is out, When it knocks you down.

Give it all up, And it cracks. It cracks like thunder. Shed a tear, And it drags. It drags us under. Turn down the bass, Hear what you're missing. I'll tell you what, It's superficial. And I loose my mind. And I loose my mind. In the deep in my head, Look alive or I'm dead. Look around and follow that sound. My love won't let me go, My love won't let me know. Take your guns out, Let em' go. Wrap em' up, And lets go. You've earned you flight. Young punks today Lack what is vital. I'll tell you what, It's not your golden idol. And I loose my mind. And I loose my mind. In the deep in my head, Look alive or I'm dead. Look around and follow that sound. My love won't let me go, My love won't let me know.

A tear rolls down my face. It slowly takes your place. I address the great divide, Too long we've laid and lied. There goes my ego, Swept up by the storm. The pain I feel is strong, Inside like I've done wrong. Waiting is the worst part, As it tears my heart. Waiting is the worst part, Caught by a needing heart. The flash ignites my eyes, This is where it starts. Life gently breathes, A sword inside it's sheath. God gave us time. You take yours, And I'll take mine. Waiting is the worst part, As it tears my heart. Waiting is the worst part, Caught by a needing heart. A big wave is coming. A storm is on it's way. It's a high tide. The current swept me aside. Waiting is the worst part, As it tears my heart. Waiting is the worst part, Caught by a needing heart. Waiting is the worst part, As it tears my heart. Waiting is the worst part, As it tears my heart.

Down 04:45
You're keeping your distance, You're showing me a new face. I'm breathing your problems, Exhaling the truth in this place. Look at the view from way up here. How will you get down? How will you get down? How will you get down? How will you get down? You thought this was Eden, But now I can see that you're wrong. You're foolish for trying, you chose it and found it was wrought. Look at the view from way up here. How will you get down? How will you get down? How will you get down? How will you get down? Can't stay here, Can't stay here. Don't look down. Don't look down. Can't stay here, Can't stay here. Don't look down. Don't look down. How will you get down? How will you get down? Look at the view from way up here. How will you get down? Will you get down?

The lake's what remains, We try to carry on the same. But it's not, But we can't. It's how it is. Just like an ant I carry more than my own weight. Except instead of food I drag around the world. I've always been afraid of drowning, And now it's happening. The bells ringing out, The strong wind blows. And the soft gentle rain paints the ground with a brush. The winds that blow surround this island shore. Far away, Far from home. A land to call my own. I lost hope but I'm not lost. Staring through I see you got, Bad intentions, You got bad intentions. I've always been afraid of drowning, And now it's happening. The bells ringing out, The strong wind blows. And the soft gentle rain paints the ground with a brush. Sleep, Leave your worries behind. There's no rose without a thorn. Don't cut what can be untied. Those who tread softly go far. Death spares neither pope nor beggar. Eat the wind, Swallow your bitterness. Fair and soft go the day. Confess and be done.

Thread 02:37
People say they're fine, They're better off alone. Well that may be. They're tired of waiting 'round in the cold, For something green. And you've changed your mind, I guess I've changed mine. You get along with yourself, And nobody else. And now I'm hanging by a thread. Those who come and wait, They soon will see. No one's there to point out the mistakes, You soon will make. And you've changed your mind, I guess I've changed mine. You get along with yourself, And nobody else. And now I'm hanging by a thread. And you've changed your mind, I guess I've changed mine. Where will I find the time to spend with you, My soon to be, My already friend.

I stand infront of the big red door, Waiting for something more. A beating drum sounds a thunderous rhythm, The bright sun peers over the horizon. My chest expands, A feeling inside of me, Is longing to be released. But it cannot find an exit. Once again it's contained. The feeling subsides, Only to violently return. Out at sea I ring that bell, Black clouds roll in like a drifting hell. My worst fears ride the waves, Take control of my sails, I don't rock the boat, I can't swim. My chest expands, A feeling inside of me, Is longing to be released. But it cannot find an exit. Once again it's contained. The feeling subsides, Only to violently return.

Aurora 02:30
I saw writing on the wall, I saw carvings in the stone. But I want to hear it from your lips, That you cannot take it. It's a waterfall, The weight keeps pouring down. It's so heavy, It's so heavy. The winds have changed. The ground begun to tear. A tear fell high from your cheek, As you remembered you were there. I saw writing on the wall, I saw carvings in the stone. But I want to hear it from your lips, That you cannot take it. It's a waterfall, The weight keeps pouring down. It's so heavy, It's so heavy.
