High Fire Songtext
von Matthew and the Atlas

I′m burning my clothes in the place that I saw you fall down
I can tell you you're right when it′s wrong and we just can't change it
I look to the place of our last embrace of the morning
Maybe I felt all the things that I wanted to believe in

He was defined by a momentary lapse of emotion
A smothering side in that high fire light of the evening
Remember we tried to forgive but there was nothing to discover
Well maybe there's a darkness following you behind


There is a silence
That I commandeer
There is a space, a space when you disappear
There is a distance
And a thin veneer
There is a space, a space that I commandeer

And I′m still looking for you, I keep crawling back through to the other side
I thought that I saw you yesterday but my eyes lied
Well you shone a light in the dark but it felt like a warning
So I look to the place of our last embrace of the morning

There is a silence
That I commandeer
There is a space, a space when you disappear
There is a distance
And a thin veneer
There is a space, a space that I commandeer
