Embers

Let the embers fall and crash around me We stand still and watch it all burn! The scarlet sun is up, so now you take a good look at the sky Covered in black The scarlet sun is up But still the lips are pale and cold Watch it burn! Watch it burn! Isn't that what you wanted? Watch it burn! Watch it burn! When you take life for granted Does the ground shake, guilt slips through your fingers (always blaming somebody else) Do you feel the ache after we've swept the lines where beauty lingers? Stare into the sky as the scarlet sun's free Inheriting ash to breathe Let the embers fall and crash around me We stand still and watch it burn Don't seek what you can't bear, you see The more we have, the more we want Raise your torch while the winds are rough The more it blows, the more it Burns! Burns! Burns! And now we watch it all burn Stare into the sky as the scarlet sun's free Inheriting ash to breathe Let the embers fall and crash around me We stand still and watch it all Stare into the sky as the scarlet sun's free Inheriting ash to breathe Let the embers fall and crash around me We stand still and watch it all burn (Keep our heads in the sand, always blaming somebody else) We stand still and watch it burn
