about
This song was written by Joseph Storey and Paul Lowder while they were visiting their friend Jean-Matthieu at his home in Strasbourg, France.
lyrics
come sit by the fire now,
and tell me where you’ve been,
and i’ll show you where i went wrong,
why i still stumble on.
we strive in this modern world,
but the animals will still be heard.
so sit in your weakness now,
before we break the rules.
yeah, i once had a name,
but i’ve gone too far for that.
do you ever feel afraid?
have you seen someone’s breath run out?
but here their eyes will see,
and i’m not one to judge.
so sit by the fire now,
before we break the rules.
the path grows wild,
so i will walk away.
the waters rise,
but you will find a home.
yeah, the walls fall down,
but we can find a cure.
