Funeral Pyre Lyrics by Greenleaf

Rise Above the Meadow

2016

[Verse 1]
In her eyes
I saw the truth
As she lyin’
Of me and you
Shaky ground beneath your shoes
What is it that you want to do
It’s now or never
And the wind
Took her hair
And made a shame
For eyes to bear
Strip them with your heavy tongue
And shake ‘em on the road
We’re gone
Just get it together

[Chorus]
Are you ready to shake the fire?
Are you ready now for the funeral pyre
To meet what you really desire?
Are you ready now
‘Cause it’s now or
Always, the wind unfolds the story
And all is clear within my mind

[Verse 2]
With our need
For her hand
Went down low in her demand
Certain that the [?]
And the [?]
You get it together
Oh, oh, oh

[Chorus]
Are you ready to steal the fire?
Are you ready now for the funeral pyre
To meet what you really desire?
Are you ready now
‘Cause it’s now or
Always the rain unfolds the story
And all is clear with its [?]

[Verse 3]
We’ll stand by your grave
And watch you from afar
The hours were long and hard
You’ll fall with our streams
You’ll grow in the earth
The cycle of years from death until birth
And the days that you spend
Cleansin’ your mind
Were lost once again tonight

[Chorus]
So are you ready to steal the fire?
Are you ready now for the funeral pyre
To meet what you really desire?
Are you ready now
‘Cause it’s now or
Always the wind unfolds the story
And all is clear within my mind
