Afire

Do you remember the day?
Do you remember the day when I was left behind?
I remember the way
I remember the way you looked as the crowds went by
Oh, oh, oh, oh
And all I thought was, I need a fire
I need a fire in your eyes
And you need a fire, oh
You need a fire inside of mine
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ah

Will we rise
Will we rise
Will we rise

Awake to you asleep in the dark of night
I think you're dreamin'
I close my eyes and pray for somewhere to hide
That when you wake you'll find nothing at all

Do you remember the day?
Do you remember the day I found you at dad's gravesite?
Yeah, I remember the way
I remember the way you laughed as we shared surprise
And in your face I saw the fire
I felt the fire in your eyes
And I knew you saw the fire
You felt the fire inside mine
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ah

We will rise
We will rise
We will rise

Awake to you away in the morning light
That haunts my dreamin'
I close my eyes to see there's nowhere to hide
When I wake I find nothing at all

It don't matter what I try to reap (it's too late)
It don't matter what I try to fake (it's too late)
It don't matter who I want to be (it's too late)
It don't matter who can sell tea (too late)
It don't matter how much I believe (too late)
It don't matter how long after queen (too late)
It don't matter who I want to be (it's too late)
It don't matter who is helping
Everything it goes (it's too late)
Everything it leaves (it's too late)
Everyone gets burned, oh, the fire (it's too late, too late)
And every time you go (too late)
And every time I leave (too late)
I'm left alone to face my fire (it's too late)

Will we rise
We will, rise
Will we rise

Awake to you alive in the evening light (ahh ahh)
You are still burnin' (oh the fire)
And the glowing sky lit up by the stars that guide (ooh, aah)
It makes me want to change nothing at all (oh, fire)
Soul afire
