The Wind & Spark

(album: The Ghost Of Ohio - 2019)

I hold my breath underwater
Waiting for the tide to turn
I read from books of the prophets
Sleeping as the pages burn

Don't wanna go back to that dark place again
I'll never go back to the darkness

Stay here
Everything I hold in my heart, I
Leave it to the wind and the spark, I'll
Give it all up
Cause I don't know how pain feels anymore
Stay here
Everything I scream from my heart, I
Leave it to the wind and the spark, I
Burn it all down
Cause I don't know myself much anymore

I feel the words of the gospel
Telling me I'll never learn
I give my life to a purpose
Here in death I am reborn

Don't wanna go back to that dark place again
I'll never go back to the darkness

Stay here
Everything I hold in my heart, I
Leave it to the wind and the spark, I'll
Give it all up
Cause I don't know how pain feels anymore
Stay here
Everything I scream from my heart, I
Leave it to the wind and the spark, I
Burn it all down
Cause I don't know myself much anymore

Deep down with all the sins I keep in my mind, I
Give you all the love I can find, I
Write them all down and I don't feel so empty anymore
Drowning, waters that are blessed with that wine and I'm
Swimming through the scars of time, I'll
Crawl myself out
So I don't end up so hopeless anymore
I don't end up hopeless anymore

Stay here
Everything I hold in my heart, I
Leave it to the wind and the spark, I'll
Give it all up
Cause I don't know how pain feels anymore
Stay here
Everything I scream from my heart, I
Leave it to the wind and the spark, I
Burn it all down
Cause I don't know myself much anymore
