Flame
Kau Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

With the flame up on my hands I can change all
That's around and make my way
Decide to melt the gold that was hardened
Like the molds and light my way
Forged metal that fakes through it's beauty
Shining on a coin shining on your face

At the right time the new will be past
A new road again
Origin is where reality lies
A new road again
What was to be never became
A new road again

As my heart longs for the past I can feel all
Left behind with no regrets
Found my way free of what was to revive all
That I want, all that make sense




Flame that burns turning facts from old illusions
Shine upon our land, shine up on my flesh
