Dancing by and by, hold this ghost onto the fire
Soon what's meant to be, set you free and take you higher
Seen them drawn like moth to the fires
Fight the flames of funeral pyres

Good to be alive but there's no stopping the hands of time
Turn around and watch me while you wallow in your pride
Seen them drawn like moth to the fires
Fight the flames of funeral pyres

On the waves of a rusty old schooner
Or in a rocket we shoot for the moon
Carrying the birthmarks of ambition and greed
Split wide open but you'll never be free

Seen them drawn like moth to the fires
Fight the flames of funeral pyres
Seen them, drawn like
Seen them drawn like moth to the fires

There's a road that'll pick you up
And another slow you down
This mountain wall is steeper
What you'll leave will come around

You've seen it clearly now
That needle drop somehow
So you look for a way out

He's bold and in bright colors
He's yelling in your ear
The words he spew like venom
Just multiply the fears

You've seen it clearly now
That needle drop somehow
Like moths into the flames
So beautiful and strange

So you look for a way out
So you look for a way
