Dark Tranquillity
"At the Point of Ignition"

Do not hide your sorrow
Or banish it from sight
Take it out to burn,
Turn the pain against it


In our day that holds no other
What are we
The fuel or the flame
In the life that hides behind you
What are you
The fuel or the flame


In our proud momentum
Thrust ahead from the start
Our fragile frame falls apart


I hear you in my echo
A few steps behind
I see you in my shadow
Waiting inside


What if we don't question
The meaning of it all
The answer in our system
Bound to kill the spark


The moments so illusive
Hangs heavy on our heads
Scorns the dying nomads
That burn another trail


In our day that holds no other
What are we
The fuel or the flame
In the life that hides behind you
What are you


The shine of trembling stars
Worlds in the distance
Curse this lack of sight
Into darkness without end


In our day that holds no other
What are we
The fuel or the flame
In the life that hides behind you
What are you
The fuel or the flame


In our day that holds no other
What are we
The fuel or the flame
In the life that hides behind you
What are you
The fuel or the flame
