lyrics

PYRE
Words and Music by David Pollon

Like a candle guttered
By the winter's rage
I remember your face as you, out of hope and time
Turned the page

And you were cold as a stone
My heart was on fire
Blazing into the night, higher and higher

Well I gave my heart
I mean I gave it all
Now where do we go from here
Do the embers go cold, or fuel the fire?

Then you were cold as a stone
My heart was a pyre
Blazing into the night, higher and higher

You light the fire from within, and your tears they're burning my skin...
