You were just an ember burning; dying in the freezing air
But you somehow kept alight in me and you stayed there
Burning through my flesh you make me barren now and again
I wish i knew one way or another if we were meant
But the flames catch, the nights stretch
And i'm burnin away
The coals spark, the worlds dark
I'm getting carried away
And it drags
Drags on out
These embers
Won't burn out
Ashes never come just specs of red and black inside of me
Blood courses fever pitch never leaving time for healing
I wish you would've stayed around it might've made things more clear
Now the winds in ever direction there's a ship i cannot steer
Drifting, sifting
Through the burns on my hands
To extinguish, relinquish
The hold you have on me now
These coals have not yet turned to ashes
And yet my heart has become so pa**ive
Please dying embers just give me a sound
Sometimes i wish you were still around
