Came for the Fire - Dispatch

Came for the fire

Left before it was done

I’m yours till your heart’s desire

Till you tell yourself there’s another one

I am frightened, you are silent

You’re my religion, I was your science

Is this the war of our alliance, have I lost my part in your dream

And I am standing at attention

There is no science or religion

Your eyes in perfect cold defiance, and I have never seen that look before

You poor the water

I would haul the stones

All the iron and the mortar

And all the other dreams that we left alone

I am frightened, you are silent

You’re my religion, I was your science

Is this the war of our alliance, have I lost my part in your dream

And I am standing at attention

There is no science or religion

Your eyes in perfect cold defiance, and I have never seen that look before
