about

From Ethereal Sunrise's Alex Benson comes a new single from Collections, a project blending prog and hard rock with folk and a dash of jazz fusion, over an expansive, multi-album saga. Special thanks to his family and friends, and especially Stephen Benson, Emily Malavenda, Jared Weiss, Wes Goodman-O'Leary, and Mitchell Parker.

lyrics

Welcome back! Come on in
It’s been too long since you’ve seen this show
Let’s kill the lights, you won’t need them here
Let the embers on the pyre grow
And the fire starts

Burning heat, can’t keep cool
Encroaching warmth is coming through
No place to run, no place to hide
But you cannot let that break your stride
And the fire grows

Face the fire
There’s no turning back
Face the fire
It’s time to let it grow

Back to back or face-to-face
No matter what you can’t leave this place
As the cinders fall around
Old scars will blister, new ones form
And the fire burns

Remember when you used to fear
But you took the plunge when you came here
No time to panic, don’t second guess
Or you’ll wind up burning like all the rest
And the fire grows

Face the fire
There’s no turning back
Face the fire
It’s time to let it grow

Face the fire
There’s no turning back
Face the fire
It’s time to let it grow

Face the fire
There’s no turning back
Face the fire
It’s time to let it grow
