Dark Tranquillity To Where Fires Cannot Feed
We throw ourselves
Like rocks against the heavens
To call to us attention
And set our sights for higher ground
Weaved within the nervous system
Of our planet and the vows we keep
The dormant fragments
Of self-destructing code
Into the emptiness
Where fires cannot feed
No way to hold
The burden of love alive
We nod at each other from across the open plain grave
And go to memories to visit our own lives
We hide in the bodies of greater beings
Together as one in the face of endless trials
You carry my life
Inside you my only witness
Our hands held against
In suffering
Into the emptiness
Where fires cannot feed
No way to hold
The burden of love alive
