The Flower Kings - Selfconsuming Fire lyrics

She's waiting for the early tide She turned back where the road got wider She's looking for a soft asylum Thinking loneliness is such a b**h to juggle Been searching in the book of dreams Been dreaming of a desert flower Been waiting for the perfect touch To release her from the self-consuming fire Been hiding in a solitude Grim exile in the business towers A life amongst the living dead Afraid to see what's building up inside of her Five frozen faces fade away Like still life in twilight hour As memories of years gone by The years of glorious undivided power A flower tamed at your expense A friend that could have been your lover Sing softly from a world unchained To catch the dawning resurrection hour Five frozen faces fade away Like still life in twilight hour As memories of years gone by The years of glorious undivided power A flower tamed at your expense A friend that could have been your lover Sing softly from a world unchained To catch the dawning resurrection hour She tapped into the lucid dreams To try escape the wildest fire The fires that consume her soul The way out is getting stony, steep and narrow She's following the spiral down She's trapped inside the wicked powers If only she could hurt her God? He'd crush her soul in the 11th hour
