Like a Candle - Païaka

Burning life all the way i can

All the way i go it’s still the same

Trying to do more

Trying to get more

Trying to go faster

Trying to take pleasure

Burning with no time for a rest

Night and day enjoying the chance of being there

Music is like a candle flickering in the dark

Little spark dancing in the night but never goes out

Facing the whirling winds, feeding on my life

When i’m angry, singing is another way to shout

Like a candle dancing in the darkness

Trying to do more

Trying to get more

Trying to go faster

Trying to take pleasure

Burning with no time for a rest

Night and day enjoying the chance of being there

No need to stay there for more than a few songs

In a place, or a state i don’t want to belong

Embers under my feet, i have to stay strong

To see many things no need to live long

Powerful and wise men will tell me i’m wrong

But they don’t know what, what i can see beyond

I won’t stop the fight until i hear the last gong

No need to take care i just want to live young

Like a candle dancing in the darkness

Trying to do more

Trying to get more

Trying to go faster

Trying to take pleasure

Burning with no time for a rest

Night and day enjoying the chance of being there
