I Need a Forest Fire

James Blake

The Colour In Anything, 2016, English

Lyrics

Pick up to six lines to make a card.

(Another shade, another shadow)
To burn it like cedar
I request another dream
I need a forest fire
To burn it like cedar
I request another dream
I need a forest fire
I'm saved by nature
But it always forgets what I need
I hope you'll stop me before I build a wall around me
We need a forest fire
You're thicker than you think
You know that money bought your name
Caution, swelling, can I repay you with some blame?
To burn it like cedar
I request another dream
I need a forest fire
To burn it like cedar
I request another dream
I need a forest fire
To burn it like cedar
I request another dream
I need a forest fire
Stop
Stop before I build a wall around me
