THE COOL BLUE FLAME
(Alenskis, Barlow, Hash, Lillis © 2020)

Footprints in the sand washed away
We walked hand in hand on a different day
One moment flying high in a cloudless sky
But happiness is just a rolling of the dice
Even if I’m not remembered I remember
It builds me up and it tears me down
A shadow cast thought it was in the past
But my grief came to me as suddenly as I was
Burned by the cool flame
Burned by the cool blue flame
I feel the fire and ice again....of the cool blue flame
Yes, the cool blue flame

Now the footprints there in the sand
My grief and anger walking hand in hand
Star crossed lovers on a wild ride
You know I ran but I could not hide
All my feelings singed away
But numb is better gets me through the day
A nowhere place and I can’t fill the empty space
And I don’t know what’s real or how to heal since I was
Burned by the cool flame
Burned by the cool blue flame
Nothing has ever been the same
Since I was burned by the cool blue flame
The cool blue flame

Sometimes no footprints are left behind
To lead us to the things that we can find
Things to lift us and to give us hope somehow
The past is written but the future’s now
Even though I’m here in pieces you bring peace to me
In all the ways you touch me in all you help me see
A broken heart makes it hard right from the start
But love can find a way to overcome the day I was
Burned by the cool flame
Burned by the cool blue flame
I feel the fire and ice again....of the cool blue flame
Yes, the cool blue flame

Said I was burned by the cool blue flame
I feel that fire and ice again
Nothing has ever been the same
Since I was burned by the cool blue flame
I feel, I feel that fire and ice again
Nothing, nothing has ever been the same
But I know, I know that I will rise again
Though I was burned by the cool blue flame
The cool blue flame
