Wildfire
Time is such a fickle thing, it burns through everything But it stops when machines fall in love Life is such a simple thing, gears and trinkets spin in sync Then we rust and we fall from above And like a comet falling to the earth I’m burning up Wildlife, you’re burning bright Like a phoenix from the ashes, you’ll be born again tonight Wildfire growing higher In a forest burnt to cinders there lies a city made of tinder Now we’re lost in this never ending odyssey Our journey vast and endless in this starry sea An infinite blackness, a hastening madness is all I have to comfort me And I will bare witness to this narrative illness That’s been plaguing my memories Alchemist, give me a vessel made of gold I’ll set off in the morning on this voyage to uphold The warmth in the freezing cold The freezing cold Wildlife, you’re burning bright Like a phoenix from the ashes, you’ll be born again tonight Wildfire growing higher SongtexteIn a forest burnt to cinders there lies a city made of tinder Take my hand, we will walk to the edge of the earth Where constellations overflow, we wonder “what is each star worth?” I will wait at the edge of the world and take it all in Above a sea of clouds where the air grows paper thin I’m filling my lungs with cosmic dust, 'cus there’s no breeze or wind And I get lightheaded when the altitude sickness starts to set in Halt and catch fire, it’s a balancing act, we ignite, we expire Halt and catch fire, each second I gravitate, in orbit I’ll levitate And I will find you in the dark, in chaos we resonate In chaos we resonate Wildfire burning away in my heart It’s here to stay until death-do-us-part And this is how the fever starts We go up in flames and light up the dark Wildlife living in harmony When the flowers bloom they’ll sing their melody The seasons bring serenity I’m wilting away endlessly And like a comet falling to the earth I’m burning up Wildlife, you’re burning bright Like a phoenix from the ashes, you’ll be born again tonight Wildfire growing higher In a forest burnt to cinders the ashes linger I will not evaporate, I’ll burn brighter everyday Like a moth to a flame, I found life in the light and comfort in shade I’m not one to hesitate as wildfire floods the way We learn to swim but it’s too late And in the end we all evaporate Aus Songtexte Mania
