Sifting Through the Fire Lyrics by Myles Kennedy

The Ides of March

2021

[Verse 1]
I guess that now we know
The citadel we thought was made of stone was not
It's crumbling, we're reckoning
The very things we cannot stop
I guess that now we know
That we've been sleeping at the wheel now that we're lost
Don't try and tell me everything's alright
When we know they're not
[Chorus]
We're burning up and burning out
For what cannot be found
Through the remnants of the truth that let us down
A fever dream, without a doubt
We're all alone, just sifting through the firе
Just sifting through the fire
[Verse 2]
It's funny how life's tragеdies
Will wake us from our slumber in due time
To bring about the answers
To believe in while we're still alive
[Chorus]
We're burning up and burning out
For what cannot be found
Through the remnants of the truth that let us down
A fever dream, without a doubt
We're all alone, just sifting through the fire
[Bridge]
It's not our fault
We have to stop and realise
But through the mire
We have to walk together so we can survive
So we can survive
[Verse 3]
If one day we look back and find
From all of this we redefined our cause
I hope it brought us unity and undivided culture
[Chorus]
We're burning up and burning out
For what cannot be found
Through the remnants of the truth that let us down
A fever dream, without a doubt
We're all alone, just sifting through the fire
It's an information overload in time
Just sifting through the fire
Just sifting through the fire
[Outro]
Information overload in time
Is forcing us to question who is right
Who is right
Who is right
It blows my mind
