Lyrics
Part I - Flickering Fire EP
Even In Heaven
Music and lyrics by Daniel Hammarstedt
Die my love, so sweet and true
Everything is through with you
Jesus takes your pain away
Then leaves you naked in decay
Life could be paradise deep in your shell
But even in heaven there’s a way down to hell
Everlasting love must die
All of us are meant to cry
Climb that mountain to the top
Once you’re there, what have you got?
Fall through your past again deep down the well
Yes, even in heaven there’s a way down to hell
Die my love, so sweet and true
Now there’s nothing left for you
Take this rose and let it burn
Once you’ve lived there’s no return
Life could be paradise deep in your shell
But even in heaven there’s a way down to hell
The Memory
Music and Lyrics by Daniel Hammarstedt
The room is cold, the air is thin
Filled with thoughts of what has been
The walls reflect my great defeat
It left a taste so bittersweet
Sitting and weeping is all I do
I still dream of you
The scent of your hair is still in here
The memory of you kills me
I strike a match, can’t see the light
Happiness has proved me right
It’s not the loss not what you said
It’s just that every song sounds dead
Sitting and weeping is all I do
I still dream of you
The scent of your hair is still in here
The memory of you kills me
I’m trying to reach that silver screen
I want to live that golden dream
This haunted room has left the shore
All that was will be no more
Sitting and weeping is all I do
I still dream of you
The scent of your hair is still in here
The memory of you kills me
I Still Walk That Street
Music and lyrics by Daniel Hammarstedt
I stand free like the wind but I’ve got nowhere to go
I’ve gained both diamonds and gold but I’m feeling poor
I go out every night but I’m just getting old
I sleep beside the fire but still my body’s cold
My life seems to fade without you
And everyone I see…they’re not you
Been down so long, heaven seems so far
Below my feet a snow-white angel weeps
Were you there?
Can I run and still be standing still
Something’s in my soul that I can’t kill
I still walk that street where I first saw your eyes
I still fall in love, but I’m lost in the shadow of you
You said the fire had died
But you never said why
And when you told me “goodbye”
I know you lied
On every street there’s a dream leading to where it starts
No dream can last on it’s own
But so can the longing heart
I still walk that street where I first saw your eyes
I still fall in love, but I’m lost in the shadow of you
I still wear that scar
Lost in the shadow of you
My heart’s gone too far
Lost in the shadow of you
I still wear that scar
Lost in the shadow of you
My heart’s gone too far
Lost in the shadow of you
I still walk that street where I first saw your eyes
I still fall in love, but I’m lost in the shadow of you
Flickering Fire
Music and lyrics by Daniel Hammarstedt
You’re standing with a broken key
Lost in a world of closed doors
Your compass will not work at all
Now, is it right left back or forth?
As hard as it seems
Just follow that dream
Come on, come on
On your feet and walk that bloody road now
Something’s gotta give
And even though this world is getting colder
You know you gotta live
Because life is still on your side
So come rain or come shine
Like a flickering fire you’ll burn
Leave no stone unturned
Don’t ask for blind justice here
You know that life’s a bitch
It’s a world of who eats who, my friend
Survival of the rich
But don’t you get scared
I know that you dare
Get up, get up
On your feet and walk that bloody road now
Something’s gotta give
And even though this world is getting colder
You know you gotta live
Because life is still on your side
So come rain or come shine
Like a flickering fire you’ll burn
Leave no stone unturned
Sticks and stones may break your bones
But those words can hurt as well
So keep your heart away from drones
Don’t believe these tales they tell
Just cut to the chase
You still got that ace
Come on, come on
On your feet and walk that bloody road now
Something’s gotta give
And even though this world is getting colder
You know you gotta live
Because life is still on your side
So come rain or come shine
Like a flickering fire you’ll burn
Leave no stone unturned
Yeah…Flickering fire
