To Carry the Flame - Old Man Gloom
Under the dirt down to the stone
Down where the ants and the worms call home
There is the place where we began
Replaced the clay with a foreign sand
To carry the flame up through the earth
To harness the fire inside the earth
Into the air see the embers fly
The fiery ashes burning out in the sky
Smoke fills the air it's in everything
They smell the wild blaze as the cinders sing
To carry the flame up through the earth
To harness the fire inside the earth
Higher higher burning fire
Making music like a choir
Burn the follies of my youth
All my vices and untruths
The bricks glow red
On into the night
We'll watch it burning till the morning light
