You Set Me On Fire

Why do you hate me?

You want me tame and not wild

Try to sedate me, tell everyone I’m lying

I sing to the moon, does it scare you?

I’m seeking the truth, why does it matter to you?

Why does my magic bother you?

You set me on fire

‘Cause i’ve become your shadow and your desire

That you can't face,

You’re terrified of what you might not control

That I hold all these secrets in my blood and bones

But I just want to help the world heal,

Open space for what we all feel

But you pretend that it's not real….

You have all this pain, but you dont wanna admit

That you’re just human, something you’d kill to forget

You've buried your heart inside a tombstone

But I'm here to remind you that you're never alone

Let love in and she will hold you

You set me on fire

‘Cause i’ve become your shadow and your desire

That you can't face,

You’re terrified of what you might not control

That I hold all these secrets in my blood and bones

But I just want to help the world heal,

Open space for what we all feel

But you pretend that it's not real….

Heat is rising to the sky

The smoke is stinging my eyes

Suddenly i feel the river and the wind are close behind me,

I'm flying

You set me on fire

but now I’m burning so i will bring the light

and I will show you everything you want to cast aside

and bring your buried dead back to life

My body’s here to hold

Stories crying out just to be told,

So your flames will only turn me to gold….
