how we became fire

how we became fire

slaves to the smaller desire

of ignoring wrong and right

when we could have been water

the shape of all things

the end of all things

burning with you

at once the grace

and the curse

how we became fire

when we could have been air

the ground you sleep - rest in

when we could have been air

follow you everywhere

burning with you

at once the grace

and the curse

how we became fire?

slaves to the greater desire

of enlighten you and i

of saving you and i
