lyrics

Something subtle in the lamp wick burning low
And how it flickers in the wind
A cool evening with the distant taste of death
When we were drowning in the din
Last breaths of the sun's rays purge away
The dying blue
Linger trails of our fading glory days,
Dug deep within the roots

A spark in the dust that floats for me
Alive in the fray
Specks swirl and dance out to take the stage
Then waft away
Breathe in the flames of our former days
And hold it while you can
Caked lungs form the caves of obsidian
Ancient temples of man

Here I am
Alive again

I'm alive again
I'm alive
