Track Insight / Lyrics
Drowned in ash and sparks I wander through
Firelink's ruin, where flames once dwindled anew
Now smoke rises, a funeral pyre
Scorched earth beneath my weary eyes, a pyre
Through twisted metal, darkened halls I roam
Forgotten machinery, rusting to the bone
I'm searching for a glimmer, a spark of light
To guide me through the night, through the endless fight
Perhaps it's false hope that keeps me going on
Dreams of fluidity and life, lost long ago
But in this tainted air, a fire still remains
And with each step, I'll amplify its flames
Flame in the flicker, heartbeat in the dark
I'll find my way, as long as there's a spark
In the shards of glory, I'll forge a new path
And rise from the ashes, as the phoenix I was
Through ruined streets I march, a solitary soul
The weight of forgotten dreams, my constant goal
Each step ignites a ember, a coal to the fire
That fuels my will to persevere, to never tire
Flame in the flicker, pulsing to the beat
I'll carve a trail of hope
as my feet meet the heat
With every breath, I'll tend the growing blaze
Until the darkness yields to dawn's revealing gaze
From carwheels to cauldrons, and machines laid low
The evidence of progress, where progress went awry
Yet still I hold on to
the notion of what could be
And in the depths of ruin, a dream of beauty I see
Perhaps it's false hope that keeps me going on
Dreams of fluidity and life, lost long ago
But in this tainted air, a fire still remains
And with each step, I'll amplify its flames
Flame in the flicker, heartbeat in the dark
I'll find my way, as long as there's a spark
In the shards of glory, I'll forge a new path
And rise from the ashes, as the phoenix I was
In the heart of Firelink's core, where once the flames did roar
Lies a secret kept from time, a truth I must explore
The way to reclaim the past, to mend what's lost and torn
And in the fire's rebirth, forge a new dawn
Flame in the flicker, rising from the pain
I'll let my spirit soar, as I step into the light again
With every step, I'll kindle hope, a beacon in the night
And lead the way to freedom, from the shadows of the fight
So let the embers glow, a lighthouse in the dark
Guiding me, guiding all, to where love can embark
Through the ruins of the past, into a brighter future gleaming
The flame in the flicker, my heart, my guiding dreaming.
