lyrics

I am afraid of the silence and what I might find there
I am afraid of the light and what I might see
But you say you don’t know
Oh and time is a thing I can’t grasp and I cannot hold

I’ve searched for an explanation but reason escapes me
So I jump in the flood of tears and go where it takes me

I lay down my burnt offering
Even though it means everything to me
Nakedness as far as I can see
I’ll clothe myself in these ashes
Clothe myself in these ashes

The uncomfortable distance between your flesh and mine is
It is waging a war in my soul, it’s taking it’s toll

I see your eyes in the fire
Your touch disappears in the flame
Ignite and singe my desire
Ashes to dust and ashes again
