Crown Of Thorns - Candles lyrics

[Music & Lyrics by: M.Olsfelt]

Silently watching the candles glow

Staring into the brightest flame

It burns like we used to do

Casting long, dark shadows

twisted shapes dancing on the walls

As the wind blows cold my candle dies

Now everything disappears

Reaching out my hands but no-one is

ever there

Screaming empty silence

For a moment I thought we all were dead

But now the candle burns again

So many years wishing I was yours

All the tears have bleed my heart dry

beating out emptiness, cut and open wide

I feel nothing and of nothing do I dream

Lost in hopelessness

I never thought I would forget

Closing myself to remember

Searching deep inside (a sparkle)

And the candle burns again

Burns again, Burns again, Burns again, Burns again

Watching all these numb people with stiff faces

carrying their dead children and never-lit candles

All these old men of Power

ensnared in a net of their own "wisdom"

Dry dust

Spread from their

Dead lips

The undying flame trapped

in lifeless shells

But all candles shall burn again!

Burns again, Burns again, Burns again, Burns again

The signs of resurredtion

Burns again, Burns again, Burns again, Burns again

Burns again, Burns again, Burns again, Burns again

BORN AGAIN!
