Fire Inspiral Carpets

My god is dead, left a hollow space
And in my bones an unmarked grave
Night closes in as you step outside
The gates of hell are yawning wide

I touched fire
I touched fire
I touched fire
I touched fire

My god has gone, like a dying swan
My river of tears washed the memory downstream
Our world is small, unkind and cruel
We twist and turn in the whirlpool

Getting ready to burn
We're getting ready to burn

I touched fire (in a burning city)
I touched fire (in a flaming sky)
I touched fire (see the fire with me)
I touched fire (see the fire die)

My bird has flown into the sky
And spread its wings and taken flight
Night closes in as you step outside
The gates of hell still yawning wide
