"Embers" lyrics

"Embers"

Let the embers fall and crash around me
We stand still and watch it all burn!

The scarlet sun is up
So now you take a good look at the sky
Covered in black
The scarlet sun is up
But still the lips are pale and cold

Watch it burn! Watch it burn!
Isn't that what you wanted?
Watch it burn! Watch it burn!
When you take life for granted

Does the ground shake
Guilt slips through your fingers
(Always blaming somebody else)
Do you feel the ache after we've swept the lines
Where beauty lingers?

Stare into the sky as the scarlet sun's free
Inheriting ash to breathe
Let the embers fall and crash around me
We stand still and watch it burn

Don't seek what you can't bear, you see
The more we have, the more we want
Raise your torch while the winds are rough
The more it blows, the more it...
Burns! Burns! Burns!
And now we watch it all burn

Stare into the sky as the scarlet sun's free
Inheriting ash to breathe
Let the embers fall and crash around me
We stand still and watch it all

Stare into the sky as the scarlet sun's free
Inheriting ash to breathe
Let the embers fall and crash around me
We stand still and watch it all burn!
(Keep our heads in the sand, always blaming somebody else)
We stand still and watch it burn
