"Through Ash" lyrics

The burning lumber spit embers as if to say
Let's get out of this fucking pit
Pining for the surprise of pale giants miles off
The quiet churn of flame
A sound somewhere between
A whisper and a distant roar

I've always wanted that warmth
But if that's the cost
Love, forgive me for saying this
But I'll pay it
Please don't ask me to
Because I will

Feed me your wounds
Feed me your past
And I shall burn this cage, burn this cage
That ye may stand
Leave it all behind
Leave it all behind
Leave it all behind

I obliged
In the blaze
I found my tears
But The Fire dried
Them up and warmed my heart
In that moment I was my name
The Fire spoke: "I need you my witness"
Showed me a joyous ocean
And how I am to lift it
Said "Chin up. Don't quit, kid"
Then we laughed in rhythm
The going gets tough

Lay my fear in a bed of broken chains
Sing Victory by day
Then night falls
To a bed of knives
I crawl
And I let the demons hurt me

But I tell them

Feed me your wounds
Feed me your past
And I shall burn this cage, burn this cage
That we may stand

In the purr and crackling I heard The Blaze
Speak my name
And It spoke my words, spoke my words
As It said
"Leave it all behind"
"Leave it all behind"

Feed me your wounds
Feed me your wounds
And I shall burn it, I shall burn this cage
Burn this cage that we
Feed me your wounds
Feed me your wounds
And I shall burn it, I shall burn
