i’ve been reading all the signs on the wall i’ve been staring at the stars in the sky i’ve been wondering if this road leads anywhere at all if it ended in demise, i would not be surprised but that doesn’t mean i’m not willing to fight i’m calling all the strength in me i need to survive there’s a fire in me i just need to ignite i’ve been fumbling in the dark, looking for a spark of light it’s in the sunrise, It’s in the sunset it’s in the thrill of the unknown every heartache, every mistake it’s in our blood, it’s in our bones every sand of desert, every strand of hair the magic’s there hanging in the balance of the valleys and peaks if you listen, magic speaks Oya, Oya, the magic’s in me Oya, Oya, the magic’s in me Oya, Oya, the magic’s in me Oya, Oya you’ve been telling me bout star-crossed love you’ve been selling me on shakespeare i've been wondering if love alone will ever be enough cause i know there’s so much more at stake here but that doesn’t mean i’m not willing to try i’m calling on the strength in me just to look in those eyes there’s a fire in me, i just need to ignite i had such a heavy heart, i’m trying to do my part to make it light don't you see, don't you see, don't you see
face to the furnace, tears up in flames
i was the fodder, were you not entertained? you heard it cracking, did you laugh at that sound? fire is fuel when you're the hound i've taken orders and i've contravened i've saved the day, and i’ve fled the scene i could care less about castles and crowns power is pointless when you're the hound just allow me to touch upon the fact my knee was never bent i used to have a nose for blood but now it's gone i must have lost that scent it's a wonder i've seen love at all it must have been by accident i've taken prisoners and i've been behind bars i figure salvation is not without scars face to the furnace, nose to the ground fire is freedom when you're the hound i've been down, i've been below i've been taken by the power of the water and the undertow now I know when there's nearly nothin' left it's the perfect time for learning how to hold your own breath cause I chose a life a little deeper down it gets dark down here but I like the sound of absolutely nothing when something hits it hard it's like underground thundering my divine, supreme, subliminal being i've been stuck, i've been between i've been worried about the woes of a woman wandering now I know my paths are plenty sometimes sitting on a fence is just as good a place as any cause i chose a life without a map i get lost a lot but i'm fine with that cause i like the curious curve of a question mark it is all encompassing my divine, supreme, subliminal being i've been up, i've been high i've been launched like a rocket ship looking down at the sky now i know flight don't like gravity but there'll come a day when weight won't apply to me cause i chose a life that stares death in the face just a stop along the way before outer space cause i like to think my soul's made out of stars it is vaporizing my divine, supreme, subliminal being the past will never shift so i’m learning to embrace it the future is just a wish so i’m learning not to chase it the present is a gift and i’m trying not to waste it every choice is my reflection, i’m gonna have to face it at the end of the day, let the chips fall where they may let the light inside your love lead you a long at the end of the night, keep the loving shining bright so even in the dark you can’t go wrong you can’t go wrong love knocked off my boat it rocked me off my route it sliced me paper thin but I’ll never rule it out cause when love cuts you with its scissors, something better’s bound to sprout i will play the game of love cause i could never do without |
