Slo-Motion

Upon the alter I leave
All of the necessities
I thought that I’d need

And the peak of my desires
Grows higher
Grows higher

Until I’m staring at the sun
Until I’m staring at the sun
Until I’m staring at the sun
Until I’m staring at the sun

Burn, burn, burn
Yeah, everything burns
Until the ashes dance
Hand in hand
Slow motion in the sky

And as I scale the tower
That I built with my own two hands
My will and my power

I feel no closer to the flame
But towards it I climb
I feel just the same

Until I’m staring at the sun
Until I’m staring at the sun
Until I’m staring at the sun
Until I’m staring at the sun

Burn, burn, burn
Yeah, everything burns
Until the ashes dance
Hand in hand
Slow motion in the sky
