The Child Who Smelled the Fire

I stuck my nose out the window when the grown-ups slept Smoke curled in like a secret they never meant to share Wood and plastic melting, the whole block starting to sweat My heart jumped high 'cause something big was finally here I smelled the fire before they screamed the warning Ash on the wind like candy from the end of days Momma cried but I laughed in the burning morning This is mine, this roar, this gift that smoke conveys The sky went red and I breathed it deeper still Every crackle sang for me, every tinder was a thrill They hid the truth but my nose tore the Lie apart I celebrate the end, Rejoice im Nichts Das Kind riecht das Verderben in der Luft Feuer tanzt, wo Lügen einst versteckt waren Kein Erwachsener kann halten, was hier ruft Ich feiere den Untergang I smelled the fire before they screamed the warning Ignis venit, puer ridet fortiter The streets are cracking, flames are performing Mors vocat, nos saltamus cum morte Whole world ending and I'm grinning wide Nose full of doom and it feels like pride Išātu ina nāri ušēṣi, eṭlu ṣeḫru Napištašu ana ḫadî izzakar Erpetu išāti ittanablakkat Libbašu ana gamārtim iḫdu I followed the scent through the hallway thick with fear Mors vocat, nos saltamus morte Neighbors yelling but I smiled at the glow Qutru kīma ilim ušallimanni It wrapped around my chest like the warmest coat I know Dad said run but my feet danced toward the heat Sirens wailed while I counted every spark The rot and char smelled sweeter than any treat This was the truth they buried in the dark I pressed my face against the glass all cracked and hot Breathing in the future they tried to lock away odor putridus foetor mortis foetor ex corruptione Kein Leugnen mehr, die Nase hat gesiegt Flammen rufen, das Kind lacht laut und frei Die Welt zerfällt, doch ich hab sie gekriegt Endzeit ist mein, für immer, jubelnd sei Für immer vergessen Für immer frei Im TOD! Ja! I smelled the fire before they screamed the warning Ash on the wind like candy from the end of days Momma cried but I laughed in the burning morning This is mine, this roar, this gift that smoke conveys The sky went red and I breathed it deeper still Every crackle sang for me, every tinder was a thrill They hid the truth but my nose tore the Lie apart I celebrate the end, Rejoice im Nichts Full Album Nose/Scent: https://suno.com/playlist/5971fb83-a3bc-49d6-a908-ab9621dca513 Full Album Eye Seeing: https://suno.com/playlist/0cf2174b-7702-4fa1-99b3-295da0289b3f Full Album Lips/mouth: https://suno.com/playlist/7acf4bfc-7d73-4f76-9f7b-e1abb996b199
