INSIDE THE FIRE
Pick me up from a shallow grave
Cause I know that I can’t stay here forever
I’ve come to find that this feeling inside is
taking me over.
Once again I don’t know where to begin
And questions start to hover around my brain
And I know, and I know that the answer’s out of reach

I’ve held on for so long
Now I’m hanging by a wire
It’s written on my face
The lines I can’t erase
Now I’m here inside the fire

I can’t deny so I choke on my pride
Cause I never thought it’d come to this
Try to escape but I can’t hide and now it’s
taking me over
All the while I’ve been running for miles
And my feet are tired and aching from the road
I don’t know where to go but freedom’s what I need

Chorus

Holding on to what remains
Only to give it all away
So now it’s come to pass
I lie asleep inside the fire

Sleeping, dreaming, waking, rising
Breathing, breaking, burning, dying
Looking, searching, never finding
I can’t find it

I’ve held on for so long
Now I’m hanging by a wire
It’s written on my face
The lines I can’t erase
Now I here inside, I burn inside
I stand alone inside the fire
If everything’s fatal
If this is a test
Then why should we live someone else’s life?
I’ll consider it over only if you say
That I let you down in these final days
