A Great Fire Lyrics - Shipwreck In The Sand - Silverstein

Burning down, we can't stop it, 

We gotta get out, start again, 

Our memories are gone forever, 

Don't try to turn this around on me, 

I'm the one that saved you 

This was my own, this was my life 

It's not always just about you 

And as I heard, the sirens begin to chime, 

I can feel my heart begin to race 

Chorus 1 

I can see through the flames that the fire cleanses me, 

Mind and soul, now the same 

And my body guides the way

Verse 2 

I feel you up on my shoulder 

Like the angel, like my other 

I'm not your hero, 

I'll never be what you wanted, what you thought I would be 

Chorus 2 

I can see through the flames that the fire cleanses me, 

Mind and soul, now the same 

And my body guides the way 

I can see through my tired eyes my sickness controls me 

Deep inside, I know this is the mother of deceit 

Verse 3 

And they you were, 

6 years old, ashes in your hair, 

You're not scared; you've seen so much pain in so few years, 

As the world becomes a place where no one wants to stay, 

We remain silent until it's too late, 

Photos 

And as I see the flames that go in the sky, 

I can feel it coming to the end. 

Chorus 3 

I can see through the flames that the fire cleanses me, 

Mind and soul, now the same 

And my body guides the way 

I can see through my tired eyes my sickness controls me 

Deep inside, I know this is the mother of deceit
