Holy Fire
Immersed in cults and chemicals
Polaroids and pentacles
I read the scholarship
I learned the science of the centerfolds
Stay human, said the dusk
Stay human, said the wind
But I stared into the sun
Now I've seen beyond the end
I've got no time to pray
I've got no time to think
No time to move a muscle
I've got no time to blink
I was the empty vessel
The beast that hunts
I wanted something
Now there's everything at once
The sky multiplies, subdivides
The atoms in between
I leave behind the lie so serene
And I can't deny the holy fire
Better left unseen
I could've been well satisfied
I could've stemmed this appetite
I could've walked a lifetime
In the passage of the pacified
I could've kept my face
I could've kept my name
If I'd stopped instead of
Pushing through the barricade of flame
It sure looks like the ending
It sure looks like the goal
It sure looked beautiful
But beauty only wants control
I could've drunk the wisdom
The dignified response
But I had to go and knock the door
To everything at once
The sky multiplies, subdivides
The atoms in between
And I leave behind the lie so serene
Now I can't deny the holy fire
Better left unseen
Better left unseen
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
(The sky multiplies, subdivides
The atoms in between
I leave behind the lie so serene
Now I can't deny the holy fire
Better left unseen
Better left unseen
Better left unseen)
