Forest Fire

What if I were you and you were me
Still can see the forest fire beyond the trees
Now I'm standing in a field of dreams
Colours burning as far as I can see
Until you see
I'm so tall the galaxy's so small
Still I'm drinking down and watching the world dissolve
Now I'm pouring through the universe
Slipping through the endless dream of time
Oh would you mind
Now I'm flying
Floating on the wind again
Hoping it will drag me in
Can't you see I'm laughin'
Laughing at the consequence
Laughing at the circumstance
Don't you know by now
Where are all the faces they've gone by
The faster that we live the more we die
Now I'm crashing through the open door
Smiling in a most peculiar way
What would you say
And I'm falling
Faster than the waterfall
Opens up and after all
Can't you see I'm drownin'
Right here in the open air
Wishing I could still go clear
Don't you know by now
Don't you know by now
This is what we are
This is what we are
Don't you know by now
Don't you know by now
This is what we are
This is what we are
And I'm flying
Floating on the wind again
Wishing that you'll drag me in
Can't you see I'm hopin'
Wishing I could see myself
Wishing I were someone else
Don't you know by now
Don't you know by now
This is what we are
This is what we are
Don't you know by now
Don't you know by now
This is what we are
This is what we are
