Through Ash
The burning lumber spits embers
As if to say
Let's get out of this fucking pit
Pining for the surprise
Of pale giants miles off
The quiet churn of flame
A sound somewhere between
A whisper and a distant roar
I've always wanted that warmth
But if that's the cost
Love, forgive me for saying this
But I'll pay it
Please don't ask me to
Because I will
(The Fire speaks)
Feed me your wounds
Feed me your past
And I shall burn this cage
That ye may stand
Leave it all behind
(The Man speaks)
I obliged
In the blaze
I found my tears
But The Fire dried
Them up and warmed my heart
In that moment I was my name
The Fire spoke: I need you my witness
Showed me a joyous ocean
And how I am to lift it
Said "Chin up. Don't quit, kid"
Then we laughed in rhythm
The going gets tough
Lay my fear in a bed of broken chains
Sing Victory by day
Then night falls
To a bed of knives
I crawl
And I let the demons hurt me
But I tell them
Feed me your wounds
Feed me your past
And I shall burn this cage
That we may stand
In the purr and crackling
I heard The Blaze
Speak my name
And It spoke my words
As It said
"Leave it all behind"
As if to say
Let's get out of this fucking pit
Pining for the surprise
Of pale giants miles off
The quiet churn of flame
A sound somewhere between
A whisper and a distant roar
I've always wanted that warmth
But if that's the cost
Love, forgive me for saying this
But I'll pay it
Please don't ask me to
Because I will
(The Fire speaks)
Feed me your wounds
Feed me your past
And I shall burn this cage
That ye may stand
Leave it all behind
(The Man speaks)
I obliged
In the blaze
I found my tears
But The Fire dried
Them up and warmed my heart
In that moment I was my name
The Fire spoke: I need you my witness
Showed me a joyous ocean
And how I am to lift it
Said "Chin up. Don't quit, kid"
Then we laughed in rhythm
The going gets tough
Lay my fear in a bed of broken chains
Sing Victory by day
Then night falls
To a bed of knives
I crawl
And I let the demons hurt me
But I tell them
Feed me your wounds
Feed me your past
And I shall burn this cage
That we may stand
In the purr and crackling
I heard The Blaze
Speak my name
And It spoke my words
As It said
"Leave it all behind"
