In The Embers

We live and we die
Like fireworks
Our legacies hide
In the embers
May our stories catch fire
And burn bright enough to catch God’s eye
We live and we die

Like fireworks we pull apart the dark
Compete against the stars with all of our hearts
’Til our temporary brilliance turns to ash
We pull apart the darkness while we can

May we live and die
A valorous life
May we write it all down
In cursive light
So we pray we were made
In the image of a figure eight
May we live and die

Like fireworks we pull apart the dark
Compete against the stars with all of our hearts
’Til our temporary brilliance turns to ash
We pull apart the darkness while we can

Like fireworks we pull apart the dark
Compete against the stars with all of our hearts
’Til our temporary brilliance turns to ash
We pull apart the darkness while we can
