Stand (At the Burning Tree) Lyrics

I come to my senses, and I feel like I've just been born
Gonna tear down the fences, and my feet have been shackled and torn
And I face my resistance, and I stake my glaf in the ground
They will come in many colours, in the silence breaking me down
I'm ten miles away, and I won't be afraid
I've been locked in this dream far too long
And I lie awake, and the hurt breaks my fall
All alone, in this world with my symphony

I stand, I stand at the burning tree
I stand, oh Lord won't you justify me?

Too long is my sentence, I can't let myself slowly drown
There's a sign in the skyline, I won't let this curse bring me down
I have lived with the shaman, tried to get myself company
And I walk with the angels, when they come they don't lie to me
I'm ten miles away, and I won't be afraid
I've been locked in this dream far too long
And I lie awake, and the hurt breaks my fall
All alone, in this world with my symphony

I stand, I stand at the burning tree
I stand, oh Lord won't you justify me?

[Instrumental]
I'm ten miles away, and I won't be afraid
I've been locked in this dream far too long
And I lie awake, and the hurt breaks my fall
All alone, in this world with my symphony

I stand, I stand at the burning tree
I stand, oh Lord won't you justify me?

Oh, I'm standing at the burning tree, yeah
I stand, oh Lord won't you justify me
I stand, oh I stand, I stand at the burning tree
