Novelists - The Light, The Fire Lyrics






Your eyes tend to remind me so frequently
The cold and distant light of these heavenly bodies
I know too well that I'm the only one to blame, I'm sorry
I knew where we'd be led but I just kept walking

Now, I see the light, the fire devouring the coal
Now I'm used to singing with the monster I've become
To dream of the gold in the river
Oh, the nights have become longer to stand
And the dawn is harder to wake each day

These nights have stolen the best
And what is left should never be yours
I'm fading with the gleam of a far-off firmament

My soul weeps an ocean I can't seem to drain
I'm drowning in these waters
Sink as deep as I can sink
I know too well that I'm the only to blame
I'm sorry
I knew where I'd be led

I've spent my whole life
Dreaming of a brighter light
But I doubt you can ever realize
That all these songs to call-off the jinx
Might be everything this world has left me

Now, I see the light, the fire, devouring the call
Now I'm used to singing with the monster I've become
To dream of the gold in the river
Oh, the nights have become longer to stand
The dawn is harder to wake each day

I can't seem to live with these dreams of you
Fuck!

    Remember how I was shocked when I heard that song for the first time. So cool, that starting bands are not afraid to sound so mature and professional. No doubt that these guys went straight to the top. I love them so much!

    But what is "the Light"... really? It is the love of God in you... abide there in Christ! Love is the life and light of the spirit, it's fruit is righteousness, kindness and truth. What was hidden from you since the beginning. Do all in Christ... This is not religion. The truth sets free. HAVE NO DOUBT!

  79. t.... ....

    I've been looking into all the rookie acts that SharpTone has signed, and I am insanely impressed. From now on, when SharpTone signs a new act, I'm damn sure going to stop and take notice.

  80. k.... ....

    Well done bros! I feel great passion in every single member of this band. So freaking proud

  81. M.... ....

    Merci Renault pour le coup de pouce!

  82. k.... ....

    This song had been on repeat in my head for a while

  83. T.... ....

    I love every single album novelists put out

  84. C.... A....

    Is it just me or is he singing "devouring" wrong?

  85. s.... ....

    bad video good song

  86. K.... B....

    This band is underrated :(

  87. S.... H....

    Listening over and over and over !

  88. S.... ....

    Melodic metal core is just the mumble rap of metal

  89. D.... O....

    This song though.

  90. t.... ....

    Wow. This is such a beautiful song.
    It's hard yet the sound just hits home.

  91. A.... T....

    Aristides🤘🏻

  92. A.... F....

    MAN!!!! I love the chorus of this song!!!! Press the repeat please!!!!!! Make it unstopable!!

  93. c.... ....

    Absolutely love this album. Lots of feels and inspiring music. Check out my review of it here! https://youtu.be/9ONw4pT3Tgc

  94. C.... W....

    Dude, that's a fucking hit. I'll spread the word.

  95. M.... P....

    Kinda dissapointed of this band being a support act for 'make them suffer'. I expected something more brutal like 'spite' or other deathcore bands... well im gonna see them live so might as well listen to them.

    They are a great band dont get me wrong! I just didnt expect it

  96. E.... P....

    Every time Novelists release a new song, I have to buy a new pair of pants. My raging erections keep ripping through the pants :/
