[Verse 1] Tonight, I sit here all alone, Feeding flames with wood and bone, Each crackling branch tells me a tale, Of summers past and winters pale, I've spent so many nights this way, While burning memories have their say. [Chorus] When darkness lingers at my door, And I can't take it anymore, I build this fire piece by piece, To stoke a moment's sweet release, Some nights that's all it takes, To heal whatever breaks. (My fireside story...) [Verse 2] The rain keeps dancing on the roof, While I search these coals for truth, Between the sparks and fading light, Where shadows turn from day to night, Strange how peace can find its way, Till twilight claims another day. [Chorus] When darkness wraps around my door, (darkness at my door) And I can't fight it anymore, (can't fight anymore) I throw my struggles in the flame, They burn to ashes all the same, Some nights that's all it takes, To heal whatever breaks. (My fireside story...) [Verse 3] I used to fear these quiet nights, When thoughts won't leave till morning light, But there's a wisdom in the flame, Teaching "life won't stay the same," Like embers drifting toward the dark, My pain becomes this kindling's mark. [Final Chorus] When shadows gather at my door, (gather at my door) I'm stronger than I was before, (than before) I throw my struggles in the flame, They burn to ashes all the same, Some nights that's all it takes, To mend whatever breaks. (My fireside story...) [My Fireside Story] [Outro] Well, my fire's getting low now, As shadows dance upon the wall, But in this quiet moment here, I finally understand it all, The dawn will smolder all these dreams, But what they taught will stay with me... (Here lies my fireside story...) (Here lies my fireside story...) [End] Copyright © 2024 by Melody&Grace https://suno.com/@melodyandgrace
