Geographer - The Fire Is Coming lyrics

The fire is coming again
The ice, it covers my head
I try to talk, but it burns at my lips
It knows all of the hiding
Places where I live
It knows all the excuses that I have to give

The night is for lovers and friends
And I put myself right in
Covered in roses that prick at my skin
I invite you to play, I invite you to win
I invite you to take from
Me all that's shining
I'm looking out that long tunnel light
I can see my reflection in the stars
In the sky i could leave you for heaven
I could leave you tonight
But we always believed what we
Saw with our eyes and the colors
They keep on falling into mine

Oh, the sirens' call
Their song so warm and light
Below their feet we lie

My voice sounds hollow and thin
I've grown tired of the way I pretend
So dress me in fabrics that sparkle and shine
Because the lights
They went out in the tunnel tonight
And the stories you tell sound
Like birds when they fly
