Do not hide your sorrow
Or banish it from sight
Take it out to burn
Turn the pain against it
In our day that holds no other
What are we
The fuel or the flame
In a life that hides behind you
What are you
The fuel or the flame
In the proud momentum
Thrust ahead from the start
Our fragile frame falls apart
I hear you in my echo
A few steps behind
I see you in my shadow
Waiting inside
What if we don't question
The meaning of it all
The answer in our system
Bound to kill the spark
The moment so elusive
Hangs heavy over our heads
Scorns the doubting nomads
That burn another trail
In our day that holds no other
What are we
The fuel or the flame
In the life that hides behind you
What are you
The fuel or the flame
The shine of trembling stars
Worlds in the distance
Curse this lack of sight
Into darkness without end
In our day that holds no other
What are we
The fuel or the flame
In a life that hides behind you
What are you
The fuel or the flame?
