The Great Fires

How the spark loves the tinder
How the fuel the spark
How the night longs to not be so dark
Such a lovely fire
Such a pretty light
All the things that we were sure burned bright
The great fires
leave nothing
but the endless sky
all blue and no green
& the strangest dreams
Sure it all fades to black and grey
Sure it all banks to coals
Still the great fires are only sleeping you know
The great fires
leave nothing
but the endless sky
all blue and no green
& the strangest dreams
