take me to the fire
take me to the fire
I'm tired of smoke, give me fire
take me to the fire
the eye is blind,
to the Eye of the eye
and it finds
that which is out of my sight
but I feel light
in timeless time
it's the world and mind
and the body that binds
or seems to tie
that for which I vie
from my young heart
and my foolish eyes
oh prison guard, I've found my cell
I promise I'll return...
am I not sincere?
you don't have to take me
I'll find my own way.
you don't have to take me
I'll find my own way
I was looking out,
not looking in.
and you can try to stop me
oh, you can try to knock me down
why don't you bring that knife?
make me bleed, shatter my bones
take my breath
lead me unto death
I tried to say no,
I tried to say I'm just here,
dust and bones.
but no,
there is something going on.
take me to the fire
I'll take myself.
and you don't have to take me
'cause I've got me
I cracked the cover
unto my ocean
I can feel the heat
there's orange in the ocean
I can feel the heat
cracked the cover
unto my ocean
I can feel the heat
there's orange in the ocean
I can feel the heat
to the fire we go
it's not outside
it's burning inside,
our soul
