The fire burns, the fire burns
As leaves they fall and twist and turn
Gather thoughts to be unlearned
Wooden cribs to marble urns
Metallic paralyzed teeth rejoice
At the sound of the spectre’s voice
Alas the masses seek the answer
Some grow rich some rot from cancer
Despair to stillness, all is revealed
Life is chaos, a spinning wheel
We all are one and nothing’s real
Nothingness is real
The fire burns, the fire burns
As leaves they fall and twist and turn
Gather thoughts to be unlearned
Wooden cribs to marble urns
Conscious carbon from a dying star
Living, breathing searching for a cause
Everything around us observes itself through us
The fire burns, the fire burns
As leaves they fall and twist and turn
Gather thoughts to be unlearned
Wooden cribs to marble urns

never been a big death metal fan but this is actually super accessible for the genre, has fun concepts, and personally i'm always a fan of albums with short tracklists and huge runtimes (for individual songs) Great time, good jumping on point for newbies too. alienasu

I love the light and shade between Bryan's dirty and Emma's forlorn vocals. There are so many layers to this recording that are driven home through contrast. Plus the riffs are brilliant and get me moving. I can't stop listening to Thou and Emma in general lately. spaceman2250
