Dust to dust
 And mouth to brain
 I lie myself down in the grain
 And wait to be a phoenix or a firefly

And ash to ash the buildings fall
 Replaced one unyielding wall
 And overtures to everlasting peace

Please don’t wake me when I’m sleeping
 I’m making sense of it all
 And if you let it does it scare you
 That we have nothing at all

You can’t light the lanterns
 You need a fire a fire a fire

You can’t light the lanterns
 Without a fire a fire a fire
 You can’t move a mountain
 But hooray hooray for the darkest days
 ‘Cos from the dust you’ll rise again

Coast to coast of endless caves
 Your heart was almost drowned by waves
 And left there inaccessible by land

But hooray hooray the darkest days
 For your young heart will beat again
 And all those broken promises
 Will heal [bad word] on tell me does it scare you
 That its so easy to fall
 But if you settle for the safe ride
 Do you feel nothing at all?
