James O'brien - Year of Fire Lyrics

In a year of fire
In a room of ice
With all the cages locked
With all the locks locked twice

In a year of fire
Year of fables undone
Year of conflagration
Year of poisonous sons

We walk a tunnel of swords
We face a storm front wide
In a year of fire
Feel the rising tide

In a year of fire
I guess the river runs black
Every brother's a stranger
And all these stones on our backs

There's a fire for freedom
And there's a fire makes chains
And there's a fire that blackens
And cleans all that remains

We walk a tunnel of swords
We face a storm front wide
In a year of fire
Feel the rising tide

In a year of fire
Year when no one gets young
I guess it's time we remember
All these words to be sung

In a year of fire
When maybe no one gets saved
I took your hand and I felt
My heart beating and brave

In a year of fire
In a year of fire
In a year of fire
In a year
