The Flame Lyrics by Annihilist

Reform

2024

Death is knocking
And the last thread all hope hangs upon is breaking
Can't see where I’m going
Alone in the black, no going back
Homesick
But home is just an empty ruin to sift through I will admit
A bottomless pit
That pulls me in deeper and and deeper

I watch you there
From the glare
Behind the pane
I feel yours
Suffering out of my hands
A dying flame
Fading away

Decaying
Into ash
Melting
Into yourself

I try to trap the smoke
Making sense of the gravity

It fucking hurts and I know I can’t heal you
I see you there and it pulls me in too
Truth exposed, I feel no pain
But the thought of it is driving me insane
I can see you slip away
Coming to terms with the impending fate
The nether place begins its embrace
To be erased, without a trace

I can’t save you
Ease my pain
Show me light, show me strength, show me anything
I can’t take this

The pain never ends
It just assumes a new face
Wounds heal but the scars form in their place
I know the way, but have to find the will
Instead wait out the dark, until

I embrace the hurricane
And find comfort in the rain
Beauty in the sorrow
Giving sight to a new light

Sifting through the pieces,I find my own
Beauty in the sorrow
Giving sight to a new light

It fucking hurts and I know I can’t heal you
I see you there and it pulls me in too
Truth exposed, I feel no pain
But the thought of it is driving me insane
On display, a kin to a treasure
Now to be laid down forever
Fading away through the glass
Waiting for the grains of sand to pass

I can’t save you
Ease my pain
Show me light, show me strength, show me anything
I can’t take this
I’ll take it to the grave
The legacy you’ve paved
You gave me life, gave me hope, gave me everything
I can’t bear to let go

Let go
Let go
Let go
