Like wildfire It starts in my chest. The silence grows louder Ringing out in my head
I feel the earth shaking under my feet. I feel the pressure building until I can`t breathe. And it takes everything.
[Chorus] It all spills out. Reckless but honest words leave my mouth Like kerosene on the flame of doubt. I couldn`t make it right.
Alarms will sound But it`s to late for holy water now. Sooner or later the fire dies down, Then I`ll open up my eyes.
[Verse] And I`ll try to find the image of God In mountains made of ash and clouds of smoke. It`s fight or flight Buried in my bones. It`s fight or flight That keeps my body whole.
[Chorus] But I feel it break With just one misstep down the fire escape, And suddenly I am someone that prays. A last minuet man of faith.
But leave behind Miles and miles of jagged lines Upon the surface of the divine. I wish I could set them straight.
`Till it all spills out, Reckless but honest words leave my mouth Like kerosene on the flame of doubt. I just couldn`t make it right.
Alarms will sound But it`s too late for holy water now. Sooner or later the fire dies down, Then I`ll open up my eyes again.
