lyrics

Behind the fire and under the ashes
Is the sweet smell of the living vine
Look not one structure stands tall
And there's no trace of life in sight
Arson flaunts itself before my distraught eyes
Under the remains
Is the sweet smell of the living vine
At first glance this land seems barren
And gutted of its beauty
Oh can't you see/why won't you believe
You only trust in the natural eyes viewing
Why won't you believe
Your will your life your pride
It's all burnt to the ground
but under the ashes
is the sweet smell of the living vine
It's hard to trust in the midst of discord
As well as interpret the darkness of this world
But have your circumstances altered the case
Has casuistry altered your fate
Turn your eyes to the heavens
Each star has a name
You are like a wave in the ocean
Tossed side to side
Always unsteady and unready
Your intelligence is a crutch
You're a faithless human being
Satan has you in his clutch
But under the ashes is the sweet smell of the living vine
What is my purpose in this life
Is it to live for me myself and I
And walk through this life losing my mind because I could perish at the drop of dime
