The Forest Rages (beachside blues)

A spark is all it takes

Let the forest burn aflame

Our love was never meant to break

But I can’t fight these flames

We built a forest fire

Set our hopes and desires before the pyre

Mmmm yeah

It’s time to let it burn, fizzle out

Let the ashes fall, we’ll see who’s right

The wind it howls like a bitter fight

Trees like soldiers brace for the night

Ashes dance into the sky

A thousand sparks like stars glistening

A ghostly parade

Nature’s wrath impossible to face

Before the beggar, Love’s price unpaid

Let it burn let it blaze

No more fighting for the flames

Some things are wild, can’t be tamed

They can’t be saved

So I’ll let it burn it all away

The forest fire rages on

Was tow cost worth what I’ve done

Your words were sparks

They caught my skin

A wildfire roaring deep within

Smoke-filled skies

No stars remain

The cost of love is endless pain

I tried to hold

I tried to stay

But even rivers give to flames

Let it burn let it blaze

No more fighting for the flames

Some things are wild, can’t be tamed

They can’t be saved

So I’ll let it burn it all away

The forest fire rages on

Was tow cost worth what I’ve done

The forest heals

But not the same

New roots rise from old remains

If we’re just tinder

Dry and frayed

Why fight the fire when it’s meant to rage

Pray for the rain to come

Wash away the pain, welcomed

Charred branches soaking all our flames

We let it all burn away

So let the rain erase our mistakes

Let the rain erase

Words scar the landscape

No remains
