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
