Set Alight Lyrics by Barren Earth

On Lonely Towers

2015

[Verse 1]
Hiding is
A life for some
We wait for the storms to come
Maybe they
Are always there
Striking down on others
Where we can't go
[Chorus 1]
Crashing into their hearts
Souls ablaze
Thunder shaking their minds
Wide awake
In the flashing lightning
In the pouring rain
As their bodies burn
A jolt of life for one last time
[Interlude]
As die rumbling drifts by and fades
I can only claim to have dreamed
And when the flicker in the clouds is to be seen no more
I travel on
[Verse 2]
Here we walk
Every day
Searching and dreaming ourselves
Out of the grey
[Chorus 2]
Colours bled from our hearts
Ornate stains
Flowing into our minds
Wide awake
In the flashing lightning
In the pouring rain
As our senses fade
We feel desire to catch fire
[Post-Chorus]
Call the storms
To gather
Mind from matter
Let the fire
Split the atoms
Reassemble
[Bridge]
Ignite us
Unite us
O fork of electric demise
[Verse 3]
Autumn's grey
Floods the skies
Colours fading from your eyes
Fertile clouds
Drifting in
Waste no time
Lightning strikes
[Chorus 3]
Crashing into our hearts
Souls ablaze
Thunder shaking our minds
Wide awake
In the flashing lightning
In the pouring rain
As my body burns
I feel alive one last time
