The Killigans - Through the Flames lyrics

rate me

The Killigans - Through the Flames

A memory it fades as the time flickers past

A lifetime of pain and death outlasting

As the blossoms they fall on a stiff northern wind

My eyes trace the path to take refuge within

And life leaves me in darkness

A sin left me here in utter shame

As my memory holds thoughts of former gladness

For you to judge my battered soul remains

Look away, look away

Tis’ the day when your fathers be calling your name

Look away, look away

Lift your eyes to the cross as we walk through the flames

Kiss your kids and your wife, turn your back to the light

Cuz’ we’ll burn all that’s left so my boys look away

We traced the green fields as our hearts raced along

Warm winds filled our breath the trees were singing

An innocence spent under blue skies carefree

A life looking back blessed with fortune were we

And life leaves me in darkness

A sin left me here in utter shame

As my memory holds thoughts of former gladness

For you to judge my battered soul remains
