歌词
I have seen the firewatcher's daughter
Watching fires burn from smoke to black
There's nothing she won't burn
From Styrofoam to urns
To someone else's ashes in a sack
You can scorch the metal
You can even melt the glass
You can pass the time here
Fire lives into the past
An all-consuming flame
That refines and new begins
It'll take your family heirlooms
But it can take your darkest sins
It's a good ol' bedtime story
Give you nightmares 'til you die
And the ones that love to tell it
Hide the mischief in their eyes
Condemn their sons to Hades
And Gehenna is full of guys, alive and well
But there ain't no hell for a firewatcher's daughter
We exercise the demons of the things we used to know
The gnashing of the teeth
Become the remnants of our homes
We think we're moving on
From materials we long
To forget we ever sold our souls to own
There's a chilling absolution
That we're given from our birth
A powerful delusion and a plague upon the earth
But nothing scares me more
Than the stranger at my door
Who I fail to give shelter, time, and worth
It's a good ol' bedtime story
Give you nightmares 'til you die
And the ones that love to tell it
Hide the mischief in their eyes
Condemn their sons to Hades
And Gehenna is full of guys, alive and well
But there ain't no hell for a firewatcher's daughter
