feel the pain wash over me
feel the sock(?) that's burning from my eyes
feel the rumbling underneath me
now there is no need for my disguise

feel the screams as you take my hand
i understand the terror in your eyes
feel i've lost myself completely
i need to know you're right here by my side

i won't pretend that we could live forever
i think it's gonna be alright now
i think it's gonna be okay,
just close your eyes.
cuz we are only sparks,
but together burning bright.

i see the daylight start to fade
i feel the cold move softly with the night
i feel the darkness stop to take me
now i know there is nowhere to hide
feel the world start caving in
feel the hollow, nothing left inside
now i lost myself completely
i need to know you're right here by my side

i won't pretend that we could live forever
i think it's gonna be alright now
i think it's gonna be okay,
just close your eyes.
cuz we are only sparks,
but together burning bright

we are only sparks
but together burning bright

i won't pretend that we could live forever.
i think it's gonna be alright now
i think it's gonna be okay,
just close your eyes.
cuz we are only sparks,
but together burning bright

i get the feeling it's alright now
i get the feeling it will be okay,
just close your eyes
cuz we are only sparks,
but together burning bright.


i think it's gonna be alright now
i think it's gonna be okay,
just close your eyes.
cuz we are only sparks,
but together burning bright

    My Opinion:Awsome song, filled with emotions both sad and calm.
    Personally, I think this song has to do with facing a challenge, something really hard, either physically or more likely emotionally. But I think teamwork is a key point, it's something you do together with someone by your side in this song. I do agree with iamlovingthis that it could be about facing death.

    My Opinion:I absolutely LOVE this song! I would say it's one of my favourites on the album, but I love most of the songs so it'd be pointless!

    I was thinking that this could be to do with facing death.

    From the beginning - "Feel the salt that's burning from my eyes, feel the world move underneath me... feel the screams as you take my hand" - wanting someone by your side. Looking at how fragile life is since "we are only sparks" but still wanting to spend what you have left with someone "together burning bright" for what little time remains.
    Then at the end "I feel the darkness stop to take me, Now I know there is no where to hide, Feel the world start caving in."

    Lyric Correction:its 'salt' instead of sock. Like tears... however to be fair it does sound like sock XD
