Fire In Eyes

L O V E Sitting around a fire As above rages a powerful storm To expose underlying tension Which shows the heart in its truest form Gathering to show these truths we hold in our heart to be The message of our secrets hold us so consequently In no desperate need to finish nor even make it dire We have the right to take our time telling secrets by the fire Releasing them one by one under the starry night sky Releasing them one by one So that one by one they die Through secrets tinged a personal grudge Each pitted against the other Shamed be to the match that lit the spark to fight against our brother And through the storm sitting in the dark We wonder where things went wrong So within the curse of guilt we hark The fire to sing our song Fires come and they will once again go That just comes to show Although you knew If the flames can stay together that long Then So can you L O V E
