lyrics

Embers


From a burden that was not my own
For a reason I don’t know
An empty field where the seeds were sewn
So parched in the dry air
I can’t make it rain here on my own

From a legend gone like ashes gray
Spoke a warning I could hear
Selfish smiles taking souls away
Beguiled in the thin air
But I can find the truth on my own

How can you stand for equality
When you demand my bended knee
Desolation with impunity

But I breathe in the fresh air
Away from the scent of despair
And I can find credence on my own

One flame in the night air
Becomes a roaring fire by morning
And I can fan the embers on my own
