Peter Koppes - House Afire lyrics

Wind blows hot around my throat

Water poured could sink a boat

I walk along with a house afire

Memories held from times we spoke

All the rest fed to the smoke

I walk along with a house afire

And in the calm of nothingness

The hand of hope comes to caress

I walk along with a house afire

Building holes to fill with threat

And jealousy becomes a debt

The war on love is never won

As we struggle with the One

I walk along with a house afire
