I am not feeling the green burning flame
As I gaze back along footprints you have made
And I am not dreaming of more than you have shown
You are not a foundation, you are not a stone
But I'm afraid of the way that I'm feeling
Afraid of this new understanding now
Afraid for the beauty within me
And that which I hold within my hand

And this is the ultimate secret
That many before me have ever known
So capture me while I am weakest
I want to know, I want to know
Here I am wide open
Surrendering to your side
I have laid down my armour
I have no sword at my side

I leave behind me the ruins
Of the fortress I swore to defend
I leave behind me foundations
I'll leave you a man I'll need you to mend
And through all the battles around me
I never believed I would fight
Yet here I stand a broken soldier
Shivering, naked, in your winter light
