We built a fire you and me
Built with the stick of desire
And the flame of eternity
You kept me warm many winters untold
But come summer I run from the fire and your side
Ran to the hills with my stubbornness and my pride
Is this who you really want to be?
You said to me
Who's shoes are you still trying to fit in?
Who's battles are you still trying to win?
What crosses are you still carrying?
What burdens are you still burying?
Oh my soul is so tired of feeling uninspired
You've got to light the fire
Then you say, you say
I love you, I love you
Though that I'd be nobler but apparently
that's just no me
Thought that I'd be braver, but apparently
I can't see what's in front of me
The road before me is laden with sorrows and mistakes that I've made
And I can't look into the mirror today
