Wind blows hot around my throat
|
Water poured could sink a boat
|
I walk along with a house afire
|
|
Memories held from times we spoke
|
All the rest fed to the smoke
|
I walk along with a house afire
|
|
And in the calm of nothingness
|
The hand of hope comes to caress
|
I walk along with a house afire
|
|
Building holes to fill with threat
|
And jealousy becomes a debt
|
The war on love is never won
|
As we struggle with the One
|
|
I walk along with a house afire
|

House Afire
