House in Flames, Pt. 2 Lyrics

When i finally saw the house up in flames

O i bent my knees and i turned my head and walked away

Though nights i had dreamed of seeing black curls of smoke fill the sky

It turned to be too much too much of a sight

Now this wind brings ashes to my eyes

And i recognize all the birds, how they struggle in flight

And how they fold their wings about just so

To warm their young as the nightly wind starts to blow

And how those babes will never know such rest

Once they've seen all the fires outside of the nest
