Breath On Fire

Worn wood, chipped paint, cartilage of rust
Salt air from sea churned up like dust
Fine moisture spray, steep emerald swell
Liquid folds to crush a creaking shell

I just want you to speak again
I just want you to walk again
I just want you to love again
I just want you to be again
A Day to Remember

Simple morning sun can warm the breeze
Simple morning rush can kill the day
Weapon of fate it fills her eyes
Her tender motion screeched to still-life

I just want you to speak again
I just want you to walk again
I just want you to love again
I just want you to be again
Always to Remember

I just want you to speak again
I just want you to walk again
I just want you to love again
I just want you to be again

Crumbling walls, decaying floor
His breath on fire, heart hollow
Merciful whisper’s all he needs
Love lights the path and he will follow

Listen to this as a song!
