lyrics

A sea of flames
Fade to smoldering coals
Still alive but hardly a glow
Scarce words go up in smoke

Time and time again
The waves rush in
And retreat in rhythm
The hissing sound of extinction
To a heart's flare
Echoes in time like a carousel

Heaven seems silent
Anxiety takes hold
Swallowing all solace

Seeking out any other way
Aware my existence
isn't confined to confliction

God, ignite these bones
Breathe new life upon embers

I renounce all false beliefs
And philosophies inherited
Heaviness will halt by your power
Wake up and witness a life in black and white
Spirit of depression
Part way of this life

Refine these embers
Of what use to be
Wading through flames at sea

Let every remnant
Dissolve to dust
Ignite these embers

Let every remnant
Dissolved to dust
Ignite these embers

Remaining stagnant
Without a glow
Is not your promise
God, ignite these bones
