Lyric discussion by nowherenik 

Spark becomes a flame. Flame becomes a fire. Light the way or warm this. Home we occupy

The spark could be an idea. The idea turns into something, then gets a little out of control.

Thrown this day a stranger Swore to crush his bones.... Forge a blade to slay the stranger

Getting back to the idea of free will, we have never ending conflict. Before the stanger this was not so. The stranger in a sense challenges our free will.

this isn't so much about civilisation as it is an idividual. Stripping down the world to it's essntial animalistic nature. The idea of free will is about not being ruled purely by instincts, though they remain the guiding force.

Born an innocent, return to earth (the atom mix if you want) when we die, pure.

but then again I've got a long track record of being wrong
