LYRICS: The Spark (working title)

I've made further progress:

There's a stain in the water
And it's spreading with the tide
Giving off vaporous fumes
The tainted waves subside

Like nothing will ever be the same
The soul starts to lose its way...

Defiant surges roll it deeper
Dark curls tinge the depths
Enclosing with hard fingers
The heart and mind feel kept

Like nothing will ever be the same
The soul starts to lose its way...

There seems no hope for salvation
The poison works to prise apart
All the gleaming pieces
That make up a beating heart

Like nothing will ever be the same
The soul starts to lose its way...

Noxious fumes cascade into fire
New waves run across the face
Swells brought back to life
The dark miasma is replaced

Like nothing will ever be the same
The soul starts to lose its way...
Until the scintilla came
And cleansed with searing flame

Sparkling waters as before
Warm beams plumb the soul
Clarity has been restored
And the heart and mind are whole

Like nothing will ever be the same
The soul starts to lose its way...
Until the scintilla came
And cleansed with searing flame

This is the first time I've ever published my own work. BIG moment for me. Thanks for reading :)

Now I just need to get Till Lindemann to come along and Germanise this. Fuck, that would rock. He'd do a much better job.

[NB: If this post seems to have changed since you first saw it I apologise. I couldn't stop fixing stuff.]
