RBB Posted December 10, 2005 Report Share Posted December 10, 2005 This song or piece is for my sister... Her house burned down the other night and as well her fathers a few months ago. I too have been in this position and it builds character and there is positive in it, this is how it goes. V1 I wander away once again into a mind full of my own subliminal thoughts. Revoking this and that towards the moment where I lost it all. In my eyes you can see this flame, bright and burning’ tall but is it the same.. My burning desire I set the flame higher even though it took this from me. Chorus I stay at home tonight think of all those ashes that could be me. After awhile I sorta smile and forget for a while all of those empty everything’s. A glimmer of hope, it brightens the sky and this light it shines down on me. The flames inside will never die and that will keep me alive. V2 A decade later, now the flames I hated return to entice my fears. Losing a building, losing my childhood has once again placed me here. In your eyes you can see this flame, bright and burning tall but is it the same. Your burning desire, you set se your flame higher and now you’re just like me. Chorus I stay at home tonight and remind my self that you are okay. I’m happy inside to know that you’re still with me. A glimmer of hope, it brightens the sky and this light it shines down on us. These flames inside us will never die and that will bring us up. Pre Bridge It will bring us up…. And will cool it down… You’ll never know…. For me this fire it set my life apart. For you it’s the same so don’t fear the complaints that will eventually heat and then spark. Bridge Don’t ignite the blaze anymore; don’t feel the hate that you did before. It will change you, but you have to believe it. Maybe we get to keep what we lost; we made it alive is that all that we want. I survived it; it’s in my mind so that I can love what I have… gained……. Chorus Something’s are etched in your memory, other things they’re just constantly reminding me. But I know they’ll help me grow and widen my vision to see. That a glimmer of hope, it brightens the sky and this light it shines down on me These flames inside us will never die and I’ll cherish those… empty every things… ROBERT BLACKBURN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jenny Posted December 12, 2005 Report Share Posted December 12, 2005 I'm sorry to hear about your sister's house. I can't imagine losing everything I own, but I hope everyone is OK. As for the song. I really like the chorus, especially the last two lines. Overall, I like how something negative was turned into a positive, that fire was seen as a sort of cleansing.
