One Thousand Fires

So, we begin, a perfect launch a perfect wind
Pictures pave the road ahead
A winding way, a silent dread
Then I see.

One thousand fires
Like stars they fill my eyes
One thousand fires
Flames burning midnight skies.

Caution to wind, we push further to the end
And there she stands, all alone
Her tired eyes, her flesh and bone
And I see.

One thousand fires
Like stars they fill my eyes
One thousand fires
Flames burning midnight skies.

And it's never ending, this sky high white night
Feels like I'm descending out of reason
While mountains burn before my eyes
While mountains burn.

Winters end is falling beneath ash on the wind
As the March flames take all away
With one glance, I felt her desperate eyes call to me
Then she turned to give herself away.

And so we end, as we began so long ago
Pictures fade, the road behind
Still she stands, still she cries.
