embers fire

• a fallen time that's bygone
  a crude elite that's from a distant zone
  you don't know if it's the truth you told
  
  anger looks on the quiet dreaming
  seals the sense incandescent ones
  
  hold back desire for danger
  a bet you lose, you'll have no way to turn
  i see the man who lives and breathes corruption
  into a circle that you call you own
  
  don't run away, from the pain, a claim that you deal with
  a power game, from within, impossible for you to see this.
  
  laid down the laws of deceit
  the ones who cherish are the ones who'll go
  into the ashes of a tortured world
  only in mind's eye can you see a light
  
  harmony break, dark awakes, in old eyes - the trouble, feel it
  here to stay, mark the way, improvise the judgment hearing
  
  anger looks on the quiet dreaming
  seals the scense incandescent ones
  
  all remains of the glowing embers
  is a bleak cold irrelevance
