lyrics

My hand is burning and it feels like I’m taking flames from a fire
I can see those flames
I can hear those flames crackling and smacking wheeling and turning
And so I’ll wait...

Silent, transfixed, mesmerised by every flick, every crimson flip
Members flicker, civilisations at night all of a jitter

If only my hand could move quicker
I could take hold be bold and take one of those flames bring it close to my chest
Hold it like a flower
The flame in my hand
Feel its warmth and power
The flame in my hand
A will to discover
These words take you to new places
New lands
Nothing sugarcoated, hidden or forbidden
Just clear skies, wide eyes
Miles and miles and miles of crystal waters
If I could hold a flame from this fire

Crackling and smacking, wheeling and turning always bright always burning

The change that occurs when the curtains are closed

The change that ripples and rumbles never fumbles or crumbles

A passing, a massing of needed dread that brings to your head the sweet, sweet murmurations of peace.

The change that occurs without a police, the feet that meet a momentous beat a rhythm becomes you, is you

Climbing for space, pace after pace the human race raised from this categorical malaise to rest gently on towers of grace

And in your face I see the message is clear, so clear that it only shows up as light pushes through

As light pushes through
