Lighting Fires

When I was younger, oh so lonely Didn't have a friend at all I spent hours reading books About how faith would one day call Pull my services and guide me To take me from this bitter hell I'll leave notes to those I love They read, "Farewell" And I'd love to say I'd change a thing about it But who I was made who I am Yeah I know I've made mistakes And I will take them to the grave All my skeletons will guide me Along the path for me to seek Every fire I felt burn me Gave me something more than scars Every single choice we made Made us exactly who we are So I covered my skin in petrol And I was searching for a spark And in my errors I set fires in the dark While the flames burned on so brightly The love I had burned out so quick Leaving them just clutching broken hearts and sticks And I'd love to say I'd change a thing about it But who I was made who I am Yeah I know I've made mistakes And I will take them to the grave All my skeletons will guide me Along the path for me to seek Every fire I felt burn me Gave me something more than scars Every single choice we made Made us exactly who we are I'm still dealing with some problems In fact I find it hard to stay I'm sure people, they will talk And you will hear what they all say About my judgement and my character The verdict is up to you I am human and my work is never through And I'd love to say I'd change a thing about it But who I was made who I am Yeah I know I've made mistakes And I will take them to the grave All my skeletons will guide me Along the path for me to seek Every fire I felt burn me Gave me something more than scars Every single choice we made Made us exactly who we are Yeah I know I've made mistakes And I will take them to the grave All my skeletons will guide me Along the path for me to seek Every fire I felt burn me Gave me something more than scars Every single choice we made Made us exactly who we are Yeah I know we've made mistakes We will take them to the grave All our skeletons will guide us Along the path for me to seek Every fire we felt burn us Gave us something more than scars Every single choice we made Made us exactly who we are
