Light the Fires - Ebonivory

I heard you say you were afraid

I heard you say that seasons will change

And fears will fade, but you lost your way

Would you go back if you knew

That you would see what you’ve become

And turn a blind eye to it all

It seems so wrong

To wait at the edge of the world you know

To fall

Fear rules us

It seems so wrong

To wait at the edge of the world you know

To fall

I’m coming back for what you stole

So many days I spent

And all the words I had to say

When you were barely in control

Treating your arms like prison walls

Are they still counting down the days?

Fear rules us

It seems so wrong

To wait at the edge of the world you know

To fall

Would you go back if you knew

That you would see what you’ve become

And turn a blind eye to it all

It seems so wrong

To wait at the edge of the world you know

To fall

So when you’re lost

I’ll light the fires

Light the fires

But when you’re gone

I won’t light your pyre

Light your pyre

Can’t you see that it’s cutting me up?

And I’ve had enough

Don’t try shift the blame to me

I’m not the one;

you are

Would you go back if you knew

That you would see what you’ve become

And turn a blind eye to it all

It seems so wrong

Cutting you off
