Lyrics

Man on Fire

Fear of the sacred
We're blurring lines between the real and the fake here
And so I'll scream, "Return to me
Return to me, return to me"
Fear of the sacred
We're blurring lines between the real and the fake here
And so I'll scream, "Return to me
Return to me, return to me"

Breathe slowly, take shallow breaths
Fear will strip you 'til there's nothing left
We are all the same
Seeking comfort in the knowledge that we're insane
Fear nothing but your own mind
We drag ourselves through the fires, blind

"Free me," said the man on fire
"Release me to the higher
Finding sanity I know will leave me breathless"
"Find me," said the man on fire
"Release me to the higher
Forever in the dark alone, forgotten"

My vision must be failing
I'm seeing shadows in the dark
And all I hear is screaming
Is it paranoia that keeps calling me
Or the voices of the souls that used to be?
I must find a way to drown out the sound
I must find a way to drown out the sound

"Free me," said the man on fire
"Release me to the higher
Finding sanity I know will leave me breathless"
"Find me," said the man on fire
"Release me to the higher
Forever in the dark alone, forgotten"

Set me alight, for I am losing it
Set me alight, for I am losing it
Set me alight, for I am losing it
Set me alight, trapped in my mind

Fear of the sacred
We're blurring lines between the real and the fake here
And so I'll scream, "Return to me
Return to me, return to me"
Fear of the sacred
We're blurring lines between the real and the fake here
And so I'll scream, "Return to me
Return to me, return to me"
