Cunninlynguists Embers song lyrics

Imagine the burning embers

They glow below and above

Your sins you won't remember

And all you'll find there is love

I'm cloaked in smoke, but feel no flames

Folks float around me, but I see no wings

No halos or hounds, pitchforks or gates

Or omnipotent voice that picks course of fate

Did a life of indecision build a dream scape prison

Where light isn't manufactured, but captured inside a prism?

In a state between sleep and awake

Feels closest to hypnosis with an infinite wake

Then a fog dissipates revealing crimson fields

Crept on by a fawn with flaming heels

Eyes red as stop signs with a mane of quills

As I gaze past hills of diamond trees

I see a silhouette rest upon golden leaves

With the body of a goddess and a face of dreams

A half naked Meagan Good in a Pagan hood

Kissed me on the cheek we didn't speak, but I understood

It wasn't Heaven that I was seeking, but a haven I sought

A canvas of the mind painted with my thoughts

Imagine the burning embers

They glow below and above

Your sins you won't remember

And all you'll find there is love

Everything ain't what it seems

I wake up to find I'm inside of a dream this side of a dream

See buried deep inside the seams of my screams

Are beings and other-worldly things rarely seen

Might be psychosis or maybe i chose this

The night approaches every time the eye closes

See a burning bush, feel like I'm Moses

Burn so much Kush I feel like Amosis

All my images are morgues and moons

And every fork in the road moves through Freud and Jung

In the darkness no orchard blooms

A state so dark sparks from torches consumed

It's like I live in a fortress of doom

In the forest where the blood pours with force from my wounds

My body aches with this labotamy a part of me shakes

Open my eyes and awake

Ashes are burning brightly

The smoke can be seen from afar

So now you're seeing how far

Ashes are burning the way
