Fire Dies Down Lyrics

The fire died down

Carried it there into the house

Unclose your eyes

Let it all glow



One day this body will break,

One day these hands will shake.



I'm watching the grass glow

Shining through the dead leaves

Arched back and slow

Your plow in the snow



So let it all glow,

While the fire dies down.



Your clothes they have grown since I saw you last.

Summer makes us all into a soft knife in your hands.

Twist it into my skin

Wire to our cells?



One day our body will break,

One day our hands will shake.



Summer lightening spit me out

Onto the wet grass

Climb onto its back

Your smile, broken glass

Cold hands following down

No one's left warm



So let it all glow,

While the fire dies down.



Fire dies down

build a home in the ground

Let light in through the holes in the ceiling

Something to believe in



Let it all glow

Your name on fire and snow



One day our bodies will break,

One day our hands will shake.
