Fires - Chrxsto

I can feel in my body Chains on me are breaking loose I can feel in my body Standing tall I make the moves With the sun kissing my face There's no way that I can lose And the thing that I Crave your embrace You're the one that's being you I hear you say I can't let you leave my life like this I hear you say Don't leave, don't leave, don't leave Either way that I Can't keep feeling the pain of your touch Your touch keeps on hurting Either way that I Can't keep feeling the pain of your touch Your touch keeps on hurting Gotta let this go Gotta feel some more on my own Your touch keeps on hurtin' Gotta let this go Gotta feel some more on my own Your touch keeps on hurtin' I can feel in my body Free from all the things you wear I can feel in my body Shows me the way, show me the way I hear you say I can't let you leave my life like this I hear you say Don't leave, don't leave, don't leave Either way that I Can't keep feeling the pain of your touch Your touch keeps on hurting Either way that I Can't keep feeling the pain of your touch Your touch keeps on hurting Gotta let this go Gotta feel some more on my own Your touch keeps on hurtin' Gotta let this go Gotta feel some more on my own Your touch keeps on hurtin' Hurting this way Hurting this way Hurting this way Hurting this way Hurting this way Hurting this way Hurting this way Hurting this way Hurting this way Hurting this way Hurting this way Hurting this way Either way that I Can't keep feeling the pain of your touch Your touch keeps on hurting Either way that I Can't keep feeling the pain of your touch Your touch keeps on hurting Gotta let this go Gotta feel some more on my own Your touch keeps on hurtin' Gotta let this go Gotta feel some more on my own Your touch keeps on hurtin'

How wise the God who trades his son for lesser men Who seek no temple, only avarice and permanence Judge not the heart, but thy devotion Keep those who remain As close to salvation as to destitution I can't explain what it means to be whole You took that virtue away from me A kingdom adorned with the thorns of thy idol Who scorn the breath of truth and reason We cannot pretend That the rules are the same For the blasphemer and the saint, the blasphemer and the saint We cannot pretend That the rules are the same For the commoner and the priest, the commoner and the priest The toils I've endured are so far beyond meaning There is no greater voice, only tenets and blood-stained stones Your archaism dies this day You are but the shadow of a lie Feeble and brittle like silence Bending the fear of earnest held faith You took the world from us From cracked and sullen hands As hope slipped through our fingers And sank beneath the sands Fire sows the fire Wrath rends retribution Effigies casting shadows Likening tyrants to deities Befelling monuments To prove hence from this day What's written in stone Can crumble to dust To what end was I made this way If my nature is a transgression I cannot build myself up again To watch myself fall apart at the seams I cannot walk if I'm destined to fall Through trials by design of cruelty and hate You are so frail You hide behind your fear Your faith is a mask for your insecurity And you wield it like a sword Summoning the flood, the call of the raging seas Apollyon's wake before the world We ache, we fear and we suffer for naught Undue and unjust is the the folly of Christ Transient echoes from a long lost era Cannot conceive my fate I suffer the want for a better world And the need for compassion in terrible times Great is my weakness to punish myself for A love forbidden by those who bore me Behind the weight of this cage of bones Is a heart that sinks at the sights of greed Of a Lord who damns his beloved creation For sins he determined his sons to commit I cannot pretend That I am the same As I once was As I once was If dreams lie in tatters And a soul knows no purpose What can I hope for What can I live for There was a time where I could forgive But I've lost so much So fucking much I hate that I hate As it brings me closer to you I am not what I am I am not what I am I am so lost in this place These vast surroundings compel me to dread As I sink within myself Forging an irrepassable path I can't regret what I feel is just I am one with the sword you held to me Reflection in the steel I am not what I am Forged and contorted I am what I am Forged and contorted

This war we are waging is already lost The cause for the fighting has long been a ghost Malice and habit have now won the day The honours we fought for are lost in the fray Standards and bugles are trodden in the dust Wounds have burst open, and corridors rust Once proud and truthful, now humbled and bent Fires which burnt brightly, now energies spent Let down the curtain, and exit the play The crowds have gone home and the cast sailed away Our flowers and feathers as scarring as weapons Our poems and letters have turned to deception

When the wind picked up the fire spread And the grapevines seemed left for dead And the northern sky looked like the end of days The end of days A wake up call to a rented room Sounded like an alarm of impending doom To warn us it's only a matter of time Before we all burn Before we all burn Before we all burn Before we all burn We bought some wine and some papercups Near your daughter's school when we picked her up And drove to a cemetery on a hill On a hill And we watched the plumes paint the sky gray And she laughed and danced through the field of graves There I knew it would be alright That everything would be alright Would be alright Would be alright Would be alright And the news reports on the radio Said it was getting worse As the ocean air fanned the flames But I couldn't think of anywhere I would have rather been To watch it all burn away To burn away The firemen worked in double shifts, With prayers for rain on their lips And they knew it was only a matter of time
