It Dies Today - Reignite The Fires lyrics

These bones are brittle and fragile to the touch

Farewell, the dear departed

Bury all vices and these tired metaphors before our time is over

The chest aches and swells though in eternal sleep

Fret not, my dear

We'll meet again at Saint Peter's gates

Reignite the fires in this frigid heart of mine

Wake me from this slumber

(chorus)

But it was circumstance that was flirting with disaster

And destiny was sharing your bed

Welcome the discontented and fix this sorry soul

With tactfulness and grace

The end starts a new cycle of pain, never-ending pain

In time, you'll see the destroyer of all that's holy

Reignite the fires in this frigid heart of mine

Wake me from this slumber

(chorus)

I'll surrender to flames you started and use them to light my way

I'll remember the thrill of romance, as long as you light my way

(chorus)

But it was consequence

Just promise to light my way
