The Embers

Let all the leaves that are dying fall

If they want to go, they can -

No, I won't catch them all

Eyes beaming

Chest beating

Life's meaning is you

When the sun goes down, no one can lie

Make the tears evaporate out of my eyes

These are the embers

Burn slowly, remember

Making wishes down the well

Saw the water then you fell

Collect the names

It'll never be the same

Because this book of spells

Has nothing left to tell

When the sun goes down, no one can lie

Make the tears evaporate out of my eyes

These are the embers

Burn slowly, remember

Boredom wishes that we held

The stories we left on the shelf

But we know better

Can't we just lay down, together?

If I could take one more look at behind you

Might break something that's inside you

If I could take one more look at behind you

Might break something that's inside you

When the sun goes down, no one can lie

Make the tears evaporate out of my eyes

These are the embers

Burn slowly, remember
