Fires Within The Cells

Groundbreaking research is revealing that mental illness may start deep within the brain’s cells, where problems in energy production disrupt how neurons function and communicate.

(Verse 1)

In the quiet dark of the mind's deep sea

Tiny sparks fade where light should be

Not in the storms of a thought gone wrong

But in the silence where strength belonged

(Chorus)

Fires within the cells, dim and low

Where the current slows, and the shadows grow

No pill, no prayer can break the shell

Till we tend the fires within the cells

(Verse 2)

They said it was balance, a missing hue

But truth runs deeper than we knew

It's the pulse of life, the inner flame

When it falters, the heart takes blame

(Chorus)

Fires within the cells, dim and low

Where the current slows, and the shadows grow

No pill, no prayer can break the shell

Till we tend the fires within the cells

(Bridge - violin and harp interlude)

There's a hum in the wires of the soul

Whispering what the doctors never told

That healing begins where the power fell

At the root, in the fires within the cells

(Verse 3)

Light returns with the morning's breath

Gentle hands turn night from death

We are more than the pain we've known

When the spark inside finds home

(Final Chorus)

Fires within the cells, rise and swell

Through the tears we know too well

We mend, we burn, we cast the spell

To free the fires within the cells
