I am on fire, I am burning bright
I am haloed softly by the sweet decay of light
I am breathing memory, I am laying stone
I am beside the world tonight, and I am on my own
I am blowing dust and feathers, I am carving dreams
I am lost in mindless wonder, I am tattered at the seams
I am blinking in the twilight, I am flying free
I am yours and I am mine and together we shall be
I am spent five times in sorrow, and in sorrow five times more
I am bruised and I am lying broken on this shore
I am young and I am laughing, I am old and sore
I am a slip of contradiction, I'm spinning on this floor
I am shrouded in my glory and I am shamed with truth
I am lasting fading glowing living, I am final proof
I am etched upon the midnight sky, I am trampled 'neath your feet
I am leaves blown west with wayward wind, I'm rainbows above sleet
I am windows to another time, I am a shade of grey
I am wasted by the ticking clock, I'm one last fateful day
I am on fire burning bright with all my unsaid words...
A distant flicker in the night, just waiting to be heard.
