I'm building a fire to keep you warm long after i retire

'cause this body is bound to expire, tonight, tonight

The embers will grow and will remind you what you already know

That the night is only a temporary absence of light, of light

Of light, of light

In the morning you wake, the ashes, the memory and the sun on your face

I will not seem so far away, arise, you're alive

Arise, you're alive
