Lyrics
Locked inside the pages of a book
A story written of lives love took
Years are gone
Time marches on
Placed the book upon a shelf
Pictures left and nothing else
Walked out the door then turned once more
To reflect upon everything we built
Memories but a ghost fleeting to exist
Time etched ourselves, ingrained in the walls
I lived it all, now I watch it fall
I burn it to the ground
Silver ashes, dancing fire of gold
Seasons came, went, lives unfold
A fable gone so very wrong
Lighting paths hidden in the night
Reached the sky igniting clouds in flight
Seen cross earth
A love burned to the dirt
And the tide of wind flickers patterns into the flames
Saw my life slowly erased till I was but a name
Heat singed my skin but I didn’t budge till it was done
I want to live it all, I want to watch it fall
I burn it to the ground
