Pyre lyrics

Follow the embers

into cities of dreams

What you'll be seeing

Is not all what it seems

Dawn of the liar

Future's a pyre

Outside the window I see people passing by

If they could see me now they'd break down and cry

Familiar voices beat behind the wall of sleep

I wish this beating would so reveal the love I keep

Lock down your senses

Await the grating beyond

And in the morning

This darkness will trail along

Born as a failure

And died as a stranger

And your country's bleeding while you're forced to mourn

Outside the window I see people passing by

If they could see me now they'd break down and cry

Familiar voices beat behind the wall of sleep

I wish this beating would so reveal the love I keep

Bring me back again
