The Storm Outside, The Fire Bright Video (MV)

Removed from the usual routine,
Distant, isolated,
Eleven PM

You've come alive in ways
I've never known you could before
And I'm not sure how to feel or think

Waiting for the baited hook
Or the slipping out from under rug
But there's none of that in the here and now

So much yet to come, so many trapdoors
So many nights to rest my head on the floor
And wonder the cost

This moment pure and wonderful
Yet I am so weary and
My heart full of fear

How did it come to this?
How did it

A heart hungry, thousands of miles away
Whispered words in my ear
Tantalizing, snake-in-the-garden
Dreams burst to life in shades of viridian

Embers shower out from
The bursting and roiling sun
There's so much to burn
And my eyes have gone blind

A flame catalyzed
The spark touches oxygen pure
The world is on fire in your eyes
Just for tonight

Just for tonight,
Then gone away
