MYLES KENNEDY
"Sifting Through The Fire"

I guess that now we know
The citadel we thought was made of stone was not
It's crumbling, we're reckoning
The very things we cannot stop

I guess that now we know
That we've been sleeping at the wheel now that we're lost
Don't try and tell me everything's alright
When we know they're not

[Chorus:]
We're burning up and burning out
For what cannot be found
Through the remnants of the truth that let us down
A fever dream, without a doubt
We're all alone, just sifting the fire
Just sifting through the fire

It's funny how life's tragedies
Will wake us from our slumber in due time
To bring about the answers
To believe in while we're still alive

[Chorus:]
We're burning up and burning out
For what cannot be found
Through the remnants of the truth that let us down
A fever dream, without a doubt
We're all alone, just sifting the fire

[Bridge:]
It's not our fault
We have to stop and realise
But through the mire
We have to walk together so we can survive
So we can survive

If one day we look back and find
From all of this we redefined our cause
I hope it brought us unity and undivided culture

[Chorus:]
We're burning up and burning out
For what cannot be found
Through the remnants of the truth that let us down
A fever dream, without a doubt
We're all alone, just sifting the fire
It's an information overload in time
Just sifting through the fire
Just sifting through the fire

[Outro:]
Information overload in time
Is forcing us to question who is right
Who is right
Who is right
It blows my mind
