Hannah Wyatt - Phantom Burn lyrics

You swore you’d never do them no harm Like the moon above, you were steady and calm But in the dark hours of the night, you were a sitting storm As they fell onto your matches, your tears felt warm The sky turned red as the roof came crashing in You lifted your head and you smiled, confessed your sin You said I ain’t no outlaw, oh it’s same as what they did Now these next forty years I’ll be running, but I won’t be no kid Now those fields all have grown up past your eyes Over the hills you recognize Those leaves all are dancing in the light This ground ain’t been so holy since the fire But those flames are still roaring in your sleep Well you tried for revenge, oh but found no peace You’ve been feeling that phantom burn on your hands and your feet You’ve been praying the devil don’t take you underneath
