The Problem With Fire - Staring Back

So what will I do when the size of the world

Makes me ponder destinations?

And the blood inside keeps beating me

Saying if I leave you now

There is still a chance to forget

After that will anything else make sense?

Tell me how you think it is, does it move you?

I will listen

Your shining eyes don’t look my way

But when the night falls I can see them

I still feel them

My polar devices seem to pull magnetically

Contrived to watch me spin

Leave you now?

Still a chance to be strong

After all is done I still feel the sand on my feet

And the world in my hands

And the echoes of that night will remain

So why can’t I understand?

I could weigh your remarks

I could try to balance out all the miles between us now

Branded by your gentle fire

Tasted what I still desire.

Branded

If I leave you now, I know I’ll never forget

Nothing to regret because the light that you gave me

Will always shine inside, no need for me to lie

And the time that remains is not pointless anymore

Release my hand and fly

Punishment no longer makes sense
