Pain Of Salvation

Pain Of Salvation - Flame To The Moth lyrics

rate me

I long for the summer

I long for the sun

gently touching my face

I’ll open my eyes

let it burn every splinter

unleash desert storms

on its way to my heart

and I had this coming

every day of my life

this is where I stop fighting

eyes open wide

you took this blade

and cut a wreck

and in one blow

laid bare your neck

where did we go wrong?

I once had blue eyes

hungry and wise

now they are black from this

dark age of lies

we’re all privatized

industrialized

we capitalize on the beams in our

eyes

it’s all in the eyes

eyes - tearing with sorrow

burning with anger and passion and lust

the swift wind of thought

of wildness and laughter

the soil of defiance

the firm ground of trust

(we had this coming - every day of our lives)

(we should start fighting for eyes open wide)

but I am put here

in this world gone insane

where everything’s for sale

from nature, over stars down to DNA

then I can gladly say

that I’d be the first to break that norm

any day

any way

and the last to join the ranks

to hunt down the Daily Threat

or any other brand of prey

you took this blade

and cut a wreck

and in one blow

laid bare your neck

where did we go wrong?

we once had blue eyes

probing the skies

now they are blackened

from this modern life

all privatized

industrialized

a failure

offensive and sore to the eye

one small step for man

maybe this time I’ll fly

and if I hit the ground

it’s the way we all die

we are wrecks of the cut

soups of the season

with dollar sign scars

from this dark age of treason

we all know how to cry

then we learn how to smile

how to smile

we’re all telling the truth

tell us the truth!

then we learn how to lie

and oh, how we lie

how we

lie

when you bow your heads tomorrow

at the world we build today

I want you to remember

that I stood my ground

and said no

(say no)

I said no...

say no!
