You wanted to light it up You wanted to know that you're alive You wanted to set it off Just needed something to ignite I was the dry tinder You couldn't help but light the match And from the pain we learn But not if we're holding back Don't stand too close to the fire Unless you're gonna let it burn Unless you're gonna let it burn Can't help myself Don't stand too close to the fire Unless you're gonna let it burn Unless you're gonna let it burn Can't help myself When it gets too hot Just let the fire breathe Let it burn When it gets too hot Don't tame the flame in me Let it burn You wanted to put me out Reduced to ashes you can hold Well, I cannot be bound And I cannot be controlled Remember the scars you wear How they got there you don't know The fire is everywhere And you don't know where to go Don't stand too close to the fire Unless you're gonna let it burn Unless you're gonna let it burn Can't help myself Don't stand too close to the fire Unless you're gonna let it burn Unless you're gonna let it burn Can't help myself When it gets too hot Just let the fire breathe Let it burn When it gets too hot Don't tame the flame in me Let it burn You can feel it all If that's what you want You can feel it all If that's what you want Is that what you want? Don't stand too close to the fire Unless you're gonna let it burn Unless you're gonna let it burn Can't help myself Don't stand too close to the fire Unless you're gonna let it burn Unless you're gonna let it burn Can't help myself When it gets too hot Just let the fire breathe Let it burn When it gets too hot Don't tame the flame in me Let it burn
