Flicker, flicker, flicker
I yearn to be the candle
Willing to sacrifice my parts
Standing upright for the whole
Holy upon holy light
Flicker, flicker, flicker
I yearn to be the wax
Melting away the scars
Running for the base
Holy upon holy light
Flicker, flicker, flicker
I yearn to be the wick
Consumed by my own joy
Enflamed by the spirit
Holy upon holy light
Flicker, flicker, flicker
I yearn to be the flame
A beacon for all to see
A flash before the darkness
Holy upon holy light
Flicker, flicker, flicker
I yearn o be the smoke
Dissipating beyond by borders
Invisible to past and future
Oh holy upon holy light
Flicker, flicker, FLASH

"And think not you can guide the course of love. For love, if it finds you worthy, shall guide your course."
