lyrics

Erasing couldn’t beautify
The plague of being alone
Talking couldn’t purify
Hands washed over coals
Nausea spread far and wide
Objects command our desires
Forced to look deep inside
All we could see was the fire

Prophets couldn’t identify
The prospects for a poem
The poets couldn’t pacify
Words flashed through our minds
Fear just under the surface
Slow crumbling of empires
Hid our eyes from embrace
All we could we see was the fire

You walked through fire
You walked through fire
You walked through fire
You walked through fire

You said you’d last until you said goodbye
You said you’d last until you said goodbye
You said you’d last until you said goodbye
You said you’d last until you said goodbye

Asylum

Close your eyes to mystify
The future nature foretold
Touching couldn’t mollify
Floods beyond thresholds
Quietude caused our peaking
We hoped we could suspire
Hearts deep in the creaking
All we could see was the fire

You walked through fire
You walked through fire
