Joel Perino - Refined Lyrics

Now the storm has finally passed
I'll let go of all that's lost
And hold onto what is left
Just leave me in peace and take all the rest
But I've made it this far now
I've made it safe and sound
There's a time to run and a time to hide
When that time had come, I left behind
A destructive force with me in its sights
I did all I could to survive
Now I've got a match ready to ignite
The memories of another life
I hope this fire is a guide
As ashes scatter and embers rise
One of many things I've learned
Through the time, tears, miles, and hurt
Is that good will preserve life
Evil destroys it but won't let it die
Which is how I've made it this far now
There's a time to run and a time to hide
When that time had come, I left behind
A destructive force with me in its sights
I did what I did to survive
Now I've got a match ready to ignite
A history of another life
I hope these words can be a guide
As ashes scatter and embers rise
The devil can be beautiful
What you want to hear is what he'll say
But his hidden end goal
Is to break you down and isolate
And assume complete control
Leave you hopeless and afraid
But while death gripping your soul
Have faith, you can escape
There's a time to hide and a time to run
Away from a night that never dawns
From endless fights that leave you numb
From distorted definitions of love
Now dancing flames in the sky
Provide a warmth in the night
This signal fire is a light
As ashes scatter and embers rise
