| The burning lumber spit 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
|
| Feed me your wounds
|
| Feed me your past
|
| And I shall burn this cage, burn this cage
|
| That ye may stand
|
| Leave it all behind
|
| Leave it all behind, leave it all behind
|
| 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, burn this cage
|
| That we may stand, oh»
|
| In the purr and crackling
|
| I heard The Blaze
|
| Speak my name
|
| And It spoke my words, spoke my words
|
| As It said
|
| «Leave it all behind
|
| Leave it all behind, oh»
|
| Feed me your wounds
|
| Feed me your wounds
|
| And I shall burn it, I shall burn this cage
|
| Burn this cage that we
|
| Feed me your wounds
|
| Feed me your wounds
|
| And I shall burn it, I shall burn |
