Memories of Fire Lyrics by Zoe Gray

2020

[Verse 1]
I had a home once
When I was young I had the land
But I wanted stars
I wanted something to explore
And it burns like
They could never understand
And it scars
But through all the thoughts of gaiety
Of miracles and deities
Of finding some serenity
I’ve loved the fire more
[Chorus]
And my forearms itch
With something not forgotten
When I run my fingers deep
It reminds me how I'm rotten
For the things I’ve been
The follies of desire
And I sift through all the еmbers
For a home I once rеmembered
But they’re only
Memories of fire
[Verse 2]
I had a home once
And when he told me I was good
How I would burn
How I would follow him to war
And I knew so little
Beyond doing what I should
How it could turn
But through promises so saccharine
The dread of something crystalline
The duties of the party line
I’ve loved the fire more
[Chorus]
I was lost so long
Alone before I woke
Sitting lonely in a dream
It’s just me and all the smoke
And the things I’ve been
The ashes from the pyre
And I sift through all the cinders
'Til I’ve blistered up my fingers
But they’re only
Memories of fire
[Bridge]
And I don’t dream, no
I don’t dream like my friends
With the visions and the parables
The plots of earth to tend
I have learned
When I call
Not to listen for an answer
But then there is that song
Voices strong
Call me home
And the tune
Of a little blue
Dancer
[Verse 3]
There is a home now
It is always on the road
And there’s no roof
No protection of a door
And it burns like
Something I’m not owed
It’s fireproof
[Chorus]
But through all the gifts they gave me
How they clutched my arms to save me
Without reason they forgave me
Do I love the fire more?
