The Flame (Is Gone) - The Dear Hunter

I see you trembling like the earth is falling from your feet

Like you’ve never felt the ground before

An indication that you’re over your head again

That you don’t know how to settle the score

I would be lying if I told you that I didn’t know

The way that you could fix it all

If you’re stacking your problems like a pile of bricks

You gotta knock down the wall

Before someone like you breaks you and puts you in the ground

Do the heavens ever spare the crop when the winter falls?

Could we really hide if the reaper calls?

And so it goes…

The lamb will be led to the loam

And you will return…

I see a hesitating grimace held above your chin

Like you haven’t thought of this before

And though the sentiment keeps you from letting go

You know it’s irresistible

To hear those voices hush

You must be cold

In times when piece of mind is bought and sold

Cause someone like you would break you and put you in the ground

Do the heavens ever spare the crop when the winter falls?

Could we really hide if the reaper calls?

And so it goes…

The lamb will be led to the loam

And you won’t return…

Don’t you want to see him fall apart?

So you can pick the pieces up

And put him back together?

Finally building up the perfect pawn

Another shadow lost in the dark

Another shadow lost in the dark
