At the Point of Ignition

Do not hide your sorrow Or banish it from sight Take it out to burn Turn the pain against it In our day that holds no other What are we The fuel or the flame In a life that hides behind you What are you The fuel or the flame In the proud momentum Thrust ahead from the start Our fragile frame falls apart I hear you in my echo A few steps behind I see you in my shadow Waiting inside What if we don't question The meaning of it all The answer in our system Bound to kill the spark The moment so elusive Hangs heavy over our heads Scorns the doubting nomads That burn another trail In our day that holds no other What are we The fuel or the flame In the life that hides behind you What are you The fuel or the flame The shine of trembling stars Worlds in the distance Curse this lack of sight Into darkness without end In our day that holds no other What are we The fuel or the flame In a life that hides behind you What are you The fuel or the flame?
