One Thousand Fires Lyrics by Fates Warning

Darkness in a Different Light

2013

[Verse 1]
So, we begin, a perfect launch, a perfect wind
Pictures pave the road ahead
A winding way, a silent dread
Then I see

[Chorus]
One thousand fires
Like stars they fill my eyes
One thousand fires
Flames burning midnight skies

[Verse 2]
Caution to wind, we push further to the end
And there she stands, all alone
Her tired eyes, her flesh and bone
And I see

[Chorus]
One thousand fires
Like stars they fill my eyes
I see one thousand fires
Flames burning midnight skies

[Bridge]
And it's never ending, this sky high white night
Feels like I'm descending out of reason
While mountains burn before my eyes
While mountains burn

[Instrumental Break & Guitar Solos]

[Verse 3]
Winter's end is falling beneath ash on the wind
As the March flames take all away
With one glance, I felt her desperate eyes call to me
Then she turned to give herself away

[Outro]
And so we end, as we began so long ago
Pictures fade, the road behind
Still she stands, still she cries
