The Fire Is Coming Lyrics

The fire is coming again
The ice it covers my head
I try to talk but it burns at my lips
It knows all of the hiding places where I live
It knows all the excuses that I had to give

The night is for lovers and friends
And I put myself right in

Covered in roses that prick at my skin
I invite you to play, I invite you to win
I invite you to take from me that's shining

I'm looking down that long tunnel light
I can see my reflection in the stars in the sky
I could leave you for heaven, I could you tonight
But we always believed what we saw with our eyes
And the colors they keep on falling into mine

Oh, the sinens' call
Their song so warm and light
Below their feet we lie

My voice sounds hollow and thing
I've grown tired of the way I pretend
So dress me in fabrics that sparkle and shine
Cause the lights they went out in the tunnel tonight
And the stories you tell sound like birds when they fly
