Magic And Loss - The Summation Lyrics

When you pass through the fire, you pass through humble you pass through a maze of self doubt When you pass through humble, the lights can blind you some people never figure that out You pass through arrogance, you pass through hurt you pass through an ever present past And it's best not to wait for luck to save you pass through the fire to the light Pass through the fire to the light pass through the fire to the light It's best not to wait for luck to save you pass through the fire to the light As you pass through the fire, your right hand waving there are things you have to throw out That caustic dread inside your head will never help you out You have to be very strong, 'cause you'll start from zero over and over again And as the smoke clears there's an all consuming fire lying straight ahead Lying straight ahead lying straight ahead As the smoke clears there's an all consuming fire lying straight ahead They say no one person can do it all but you want to in your head But you can't be Shakespeare and you can't be Joyce so what is left instead You're stuck with yourself and a rage that can hurt you you have to start at the beginning again And just this moment this wonderful fire started up again When you pass through humble, when you pass through sickly when you pass through I'm better than you all When you pass through anger and self deprecation and have the strength to acknowledge it all When the past makes you laugh and you can savor the magic that let you survive your own war You find that that fire is passion and there's a door up ahead not a wall As you pass through fire as you pass through fire trying to remember its name When you pass through fire licking at your lips you cannot remain the same And if the building's burning move towards that door but don't put the flames out There's a bit of magic in everything and then some loss to even things out Some loss to even things out some loss to even things out There's a bit of magic in everything and then some loss to even things out
