lyrics

A Shadow Doused In Flames

Met a holy ghost
I even shook its hand
We built a bridge to the coast
Over desert sand
Underneath the waves
Hung a midnight grace
We were lost in a dream
Mercy was currency

Oh, oh oh

It it quiet here
We hardly speak
And in the dark I can see it
A shadow doused in flames

Oh, oh oh

A thousand years going by in just one day
We run through fields blindfolded
We feel nothing

Oh, oh oh
