lyrics

I tire of this small space containing
worlds at wait with distant aching
Lost promise held in those forsaken
I still carry all the dark that you must brave now
I didn’t drown

Did fire fuel your lust for power
Are you sorry your destruction calls this final hour
Does it wear you down
Know it comes around
Burn or drown
Burn or drown

Your drove the stake to try and tame me
I merely slept here called on patience
You’ll suffer how like those you’ve wasted
Temperatures rise with seas
She rages

Did fire fuel your lust for power
Are you sorry your destruction calls this final hour
Does it wear you down
Know it comes around
Burn or drown
Burn or drown

She crawls beneath my skin
Earth, supple, soft and smouldering
Chanting as she’s summoning all that ever was and will to be
Ice melting fast with falling trees
Shifting tides and small degrees
Her distant cries awakening
Tears that flood the way again
Her howling birth of all within
The moment all creation sings
Screaming death to those who cross her whim
But softness gives
More brave than grim
Fragile gifted love is strength
Her denial, your unholy sin

Did fire fuel your lust for power
Are you sorry your destruction calls this final hour
Does it wear you down
Know it comes around
Burn or drown
Burn or drown
