lyrics

Fire burn me


If everything you say is true

The grass should be green and the sky should be blue

I wait and watch the flowers grow

If eyes were like shotguns this war would be over

And I wonder where the people play

The roof is on fire the flames getting higher

I wait and watch the fire burn

The fire is burning

The fire is burning me



Fire burn me

Wake me up and show me

I’m still sleeping

Wake me up and teach me



And what about the plans we made

You promised me freckles.. you promised me sun

Snowflakes falling on my head

If words were like arrows this war would be over

And I wonder why the people stay

The cellar is drowning.. the water is rising

Water climbing on the walls

The water is moving

Water is moving in



Fire burn me

Wake me up and show me

I’m still sleeping

Wake me up and teach me
