Shallow fire, grave of sticks
Will it always come to this?
Chasing my tail in the void
That which is pure, I have destroyed

Shallow fire in the sand
Left with your blood on my hands
Now there's a river to your door
And I can't cross when it won't open up anymore

Drift back to the tomb, alone
I'll sit, making my plans

So won't you save yourself some time and let me lie like the devil I am?
My stars, they keep falling so fast
I'll just keep riding through the eye of the storm that keeps pulling me back
It keeps pulling me back
This fever dream, pulling me back

Shallow fire, dying light
Swallow up by the night
Love is a violence, I'm a child
Hiding in your shadow
Pretend I'm safe one more night

Drift back to the tomb, alone
I'll sift through broken plans

So won't you save yourself some time and let me lie like the devil I am?
My stars, they keep falling so fast
I'll just keep riding through the eye of the storm that keeps pulling me back
It keeps pulling me back
This fever dream, pulling me back

Riding through the eye of the storm, fever dreaming
Riding through the storm, on the road to your door

Shallow fire in the sand
Left with your blood on my hands

Shallow fire, grave of sticks
Will it always come to this?
I don't believe it
No, there were oh so many times shallow fire held your hand
Now I don't know where to land
Bury my heart down by your grave
Still trapped by the thought that shallow fires never fade

So won't you save yourself some time and let me lie like the devil I am?
My stars, they keep falling so fast
I just keep riding through the eye of the storm that keeps pulling me back
Pulling me back down
Down to hell
