Lyrics Forestfire - David Usher

Forestfire

What if I were you and you were me Still can’t see the forest fire beyond the trees
Now I’m standing in a field of dreams
The colours burning as far as I can see
Until you see
I’m so tall, the galaxy’s so small
Here I’m drinking down and watching the world dissolve
Now I’m pouring through the Universe
Slipping through the endless dream of time
What would you find
Now I’m flying
Floating on the wind again
Hoping it will drag me in Can’t you see I’m laughing
Laughing at the consequence
Laughing at this circumstance
Don’t you know by now
Where are all the faces they’ve gone by The faster that we live the more we die
Now I’m crashing through the open door
Smiling in a most peculiar way
What would you say
And I’m falling
Faster than the waterfall
Opens up and after all
Can’t you see I’m drowning
Right here in the open air
Wishing I could still go clear
Don’t you know by now
Don’t you know by now
This is what we are
This is what we are
Don’t you know by now
Don’t you know by now
This is what we are
This is what we are
Flying
Floating on the wind again
Wishing that you’d drag me in Can’t you see I’m hoping
Wishing I could see myself
Wishing I were someone else
Don’t you know by now
Don’t you know by now
This is what we are
Oh, this is what we are
Don’t you know by now
Don’t you know by now
This is what we are
This is what we are
This is what we are
This is what we are
This is what we are
This is what we are
This is what we are
This is what we are
This is what we are
