Candle Glow

Heading south on dusty roads Headlights glow against the dark I still hear your voice, I remember your words Burning bright inside my heart Not my landscape, not my home I played the cards I was given The beasts watch me from the shadows As I avoid their suspicion Sugar-coated suffering (wonder what this one will bring?) Food for the candle wick (another song for us to sing) Chords for pain everybody knows (not my landscape, not my home) Burn your heartbreak on the family coals (don't let it show) Heading south running just in case Love has faded like an old photograph Feed your heartbreak to the fireplace Warm your grief in the candle glow Not my landscape, not my home I played the part I was given The beasts watch me from the shadows As I avoid their suspicion Sugar-coated suffering (wonder what this one will bring?) Food for the candle wick (another song for us to sing) Chords for pain everybody knows (not my landscape, not my home) Burn your heartbreak on the family coals (don't let it show)
