Emerald Flame Lyrics

Who could face this ruthless beauty
A masterpiece of ragged glory
Through simple silhouette and shadow
The bells of pardon ringing hollow
You have shattered my defenses
Now nothing will divide us

Through sacred fields fallen follow
We build the tenements of sorrow
And step into this vacant future
With a hopeful Alleluia
All to light the Emerald Flame beneath your brow
All to light the Emerald Flame

One of these days you'll see the best of me
Most nights now you wrestle with the rest of me
Let me steal you for the weekend
You can scatter my defences
I guess if you still love me then
Nothing will divide us

Through sacred fields fallen follow
Build the monument to sorrow
Step into this vacant future
With a desperate 'Alleluia
All to light the Emerald Flame beneath your brow
All to light the Emerald Flame

May this love, may this love be light upon you now
May this love, may this love be light upon you now

Through sacred fields fallen follow
We build the tenements of sorrow
Step into this vacant future
With a joyful 'Alleluia
A song to light the Emerald Flame beneath your brow
All to light the Emerald Flame
