Like Flames
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Something you've heard
Somewhere you've seen
To real to ignore
You've chosen not to believe
From the black of their pain
To the white of their fear
In the dust they die
While eden lies near
The freedom bought, changed hands, was sold
The heat of love has turned ice cold
We just can't escape it
Flames reaching out from sun
From the garden of love, been banished to long
And the balance will change
Between the weak and the strong
Once they would beg
And then they'd plead but now they demand
Divided by those that need
And those that command
The freedom bought, changed hands, was sold
The heat of love has turned ice cold
We never learn but we know to well
Heavens' died and it's gone to hell
We just acn't escape it
Flames reaching out from the sun
Now you watch
But you should have run
Like the flames that leap
From the base of the sun
And you dream you're free but you'll awake
Oh to much to soon, to much to late
The freedom bought, changed hands, was sold
The heat of love has turned ice cold
