The Wind & Spark Lyrics

by Andy Black

[Verse 1]
I hold my breath underwater
Waiting for the tide to turn
I read from books of the prophets
Sleeping as the pages burn

[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricenter.com/e117369-andy_black~the_wind_and_spark_lyrics.html ]
[Pre-Chorus]
Don't want to go back to that dark place again
I'll never go back to the darkness

[Chorus]
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 the heart, I
Leave it to the wind and the spark, I
Burn it all down
'Cause I don't know myself much anymore

[Verse 2]
I feel the words of the gospel
Telling me I'll never learn
I gave my life to a purpose
Here in death I am reborn

[Pre-Chorus]
Don't want to go back to that dark place again
I'll never go back to the darkness

[Chorus]
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 the heart, I
Leave it to the wind and the spark, I
Burn it all down
'Cause I don't know myself much anymore

[Bridge]
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 their wine, I'm
Swimming through the scars of time, I'll
Crawl myself out
So I don't end up hopeless anymore
I don't end up hopeless anymore

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
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 the heart, I
Leave it to the wind and the spark, I
Burn it all down
'Cause I don't know myself much anymore
