Wildfires

(album: Mariachi El Bronx - 2009)

With fire in my eyes
With fire in my lungs
I am not afraid
I've known it all along
A calm before the storm
A whistling in the trees
Paranoia is blowing in the breeze
And all I've ever found
Is burning to the ground
And all I'll ever do
Is burn a whole in you
A spark becomes a flame
The wheels begin to rust
Ashen turns to ash
And lovers turn to dust

A wild fire swept over me
Burning bright and out of control
A wildfire swept through me
Turning my insides to black
Destroying everything in its path

A fire fills the air
The smoke is everywhere
Its darker than disease
It brings you to your knees
A love begins to choke
Our lives go up in flames
Everything will burn
And nothing will remain

A wild fire swept over me
Burning bright and out of control
A wildfire swept through me
Turning my insides to black
Destroying everything in its path

How did I survive
Burnt but still alive
A part of me has died
From ashes I will rise

A wild fire swept over me
Burning bright and out of control
A wildfire swept through me
Turning my insides to black
Destroying everything in its path
