The Maria Fire

(album: CMFT - 2020)

There's a moment when you're taking it in
And the audience around you wants to see where you been
That's the time when you realize that time's run out
Slight! delirium and hints of some teeth
Amnesia only works if you keep it discreet
Something tells me this house won't unpack itself

The longer I'm away from you the more I can't wait
Just to dance in your ashes and to spit on your grave
The moral of the story is: don't be surprised
When you're burning on the other side
Burning on the other side
Burning on the other side

...Don't get me wrong
I wouldn't want to imply
That I'm bitter or belligerent or simply benign
I'm just looking for ways to enjoy the view
It's ridiculous, the shit we become
Twisting knives and your words around until we're all numb
I'm along for the ride but I was right all along, along, along, along

The longer I'm away from you the more I can't wait
Just to dance in your ashes and to spit on your grave
The moral of the story is: don't be surprised
When you're burning on the other side
Burning on the other side
Burning on the other side

The longer I'm away from you the more I can't wait
Just to dance in your ashes and to spit on your grave
The moral of the story is: don't be surprised
When you're burning on the other side
Burning on the other side
Burning on the other side
Burning on the other side
