Malika Dahl Wonderfully composed music, with soft and thoughtfully placed harmonies.
The fire burned too long wins over with its piano, hitting chords off-beat and bringing a special dynamic into the song. Anders’ voice is complementing his words and melodies, touching your heart and will reach yours soul – just open up to a diverse album, with surprises in every song.

lyrics

This Fire Has Burned Too Long
(© Anders/Brown/Gallardo)

This fire burns us all
Forging what
We thought we knew
Our history disowned

This fire goes beyond
Fuel some up
But melt all down
Too hot for anyone

This heat just burns us up
We cannot fear too much

And I fear this fire has burned too long
Can’t save us now
And I fear it’s gonna burn us up

He’s the arsonist some chose
To lead the main
Fire brigade
New civil service lows

We’re complicit as a whole
The arsonist
An aspect of
A pyromania core

This heat just burns us up
We cannot fear too much

And I fear this fire has burned too long
Can’t save us now
And I fear it’s gonna burn us up

This fire is our own
It's this that defines our home

And I fear this fire has burned too long
Can’t save us now
And I fear this fire has burned too long
Nowhere to go
And I fear this fire has burned too long
Burns from our core
And I fear it’s gonna burn us up
