lyrics

Verse 1

You wouldn’t believe me if I told you that you are true north
And in my heart there’s a needle, it’s always pointed at you
I’m following your light around this place, so give me grace
Oh let me savor your sweet symphony…
And I’ll try to remember to temper the darkness,
The spark, and the longing for more…

Verse 2

The current carries me away, another drop into the fray
She’ll never release me, enraptured and culled by the edge of the ember
Slowly surrender my soul…
I’m bellowing the echo in my heart through the dark, fan the spark
The breath that I breathe feeds the flame in your pyre, yeah
And I’ll try to embrace every texture and taste
As I chase every chance that I choose
I’ll bring the fire, you bring the fuse

Verse 3

I was alone, adrift in the void, drank from a well that ran dry
And I tilled the fields of ash and remains
Coughed up all my swallowed pride

Verse 4

And I was the martyr and you were the muse
And the world was a drop in our hands
So take what you want and I’ll take what I can

Verse 5

I could use a friend for the night
I’m a foe to myself, front seat to the fight
Let me crumble inside you and never see the light of day again
Could you do that for me my friend?
