one thousand fires

so

we begin

a perfect launch a perfect wind

pictures pave the road ahead

a winding way

a silent dread

then i see

one thousand fires

like stars they fill my eyes

one thousand fires

flames burning midnight skies

caution to wind

we push further to the end

and there she stands

all alone

her tired eyes

her flesh and bone

and i see

one thousand fires

like stars they fill my eyes

one thousand fires

flames burning midnight skies

and it's never ending

this sky high white night

feels like i'm descending out of reason

while mountains burn before my eyes

while mountains burn

winters end is falling beneath ash on the wind

as the march flames take all away

with one glance

i felt her desperate eyes call to me

then she turned to give herself away

and so we end

as we began so long ago

pictures fade

the road behind

still she stands

still she cries
