Toadies, The - I Burn lyrics

Driftin' upward
Gently lifting
Lazy on the wind
Rollin' over
Turnin' slowly
Beginning & the end

Fire is bright
Fire is clean
Never so alive
Smoke is freedom
Flame is mercy
I am free tonight

& I burn
I burn

Stoke the embers
Cleanse the spirit
A prayer in every spark
Feel the lick of
Bad religion
The finish & the start

In the beginning
We were smarter
the flame was heaven sent
Through the ages
We got stupid
Now we must repent

& I burn
I burn

Sift the ashes
For reminders
Stony things remain
Tooth & bone
unimpressive
I have left these things

Because fire is bright
Fire is clean
efficient & divine
Tooth & bone
Charms & dolls
I am free tonight

I burn...
The air...
You breathe...

I burn...
The air...
You Breathe...

I burn...
The air...
You breathe...

I burn
I burn
I burn
I burn
