The Core

Every morning when I wake

A feeling soon begins to overtake me

Ringing in my ears resounds through my brain, it finally surrounds me

There is fire, there is life

There is passion, fever and fury

There is love and there is hate

There is longing, anger and worry

Oh, I am the flame, feel it touch my heart

And down at my core is the hottest part

I can burn without fuel

If it should become too cold

I know I can endure the frostbite

Ooh, a blanket then I'll wrap around me

I keep myself so close to my side

Well, no one then can cause me harm

Just as the river runs into the sea

Because every day, your fire alarm

Is deafening the silence all around me

Oh, I am the flame, feel it touch my heart

And down at my core is the hottest part

I can burn without fuel

Oh, it's burning

Yes, it's burning

Ah, you can trust me, we can laugh

Together, we can share our sorrow

And I will give you secrets too

An attitude that you may borrow

A gypsy woman said to me

One thing you must bear in your mind

You are young and you are free

But damned if you're deceased in your own lifetime

Oh, you have a flame, feel it in your heart

And down at the core is the hottest part

We can run without fuel

It's burning

Forever, it's burning
