Thousand Burning Forests

(album: The Death Of Greeley Estates - 2011)

Hush now, can you hear birds in the air?
I think that the fire is near
It's time to find shelter, my dear
How do we run from something so beautiful?

Can you taste the smoke of a thousand burning forests?
Can you find your way out?

Don't look back, all you had is gone
You lived your whole life for yourself
Now judgment rolls through the clouds
You knew this would happen
How do we run from something so beautiful?

Can you taste the smoke of a thousand burning forests?
Can you find your way out now?
Surrounded by burning trees
I think I found an escape
My life, my heart, my mistakes
But still, I find that I'm running to the flames
Towards the flames

Now, watching the world burn down
Is this how you pictured hell?
All of the skies burnt out
Now, watching the world burn down
Is this how you pictured hell?
All of the skies burnt out
They burnt out

Can you taste the smoke of a thousand burning forests?
Can you find your way out now?
Surrounded by burning trees
I think I found an escape
My life, my heart, my mistakes
But still, I find that I'm running to the flames
Towards the flames

Can you taste the smoke of a thousand burning forests?
Can you find your way out?
