This song is written in several colors of the diminished scale in 5/4 and 7/4. It is about a shielded, protected life about to cave in on itself and the desire to break out of that shell.
Lyrics
My heart an ember glows Hot blood a river flows It burns away my flesh Cold ashes all that's left I feel the cold of space Ice hanging from my face Before this fire dies I strain my eyes Horizon Now it's gone I want to touch the sun I nearly felt the flame I'm freezing over, smoldering I want to touch the sun I never felt so warm Feel the fire and be reborn Sky fire a burning crown Its light was shining down Reveal the boy inside The scars I try to hide The heat was on my skin Ignite the flame within I fear the fire's kiss Shame my eclipse Run and hide Burn inside Hiding in darkness My heart cries in silence My armor, my prison Salvation in fusion Came so close I came so close I want to touch the sun I nearly felt the flame I'm freezing over, smoldering I want to touch the sun I never felt so warm Feel the fire and be reborn
