Slow me down,
Feel the heat 'cause I'm on fire now.
I need to breathe 'cause I'm forgetting how,
It's been too long
Read my mind,
Sending chills up and down my spine.
With blurry eyes but now there's not much time,
I'm on fire now.
I feel the stones beneath my feet but I walk on,
But I'm not scared to make stone bleed so I walk on.
So take a leap,
Oh, sit down with all the sides of me.
Be everything that I want to be.
And just hold on.
I'm out of sync,
All my devils share a common link.
They start to swim as I start to sink,
I'm on fire now.
I have no shadow in the shade, it hunts me down.
But in the shadow's where it's made is where I'm found.
Ohhh, it's got a hold on me.
Ohhh.
I'm hypnotised,
So tie me down and cover up my eyes.
My heart is clear but my heads full of lies,
Now I'm bound to fall.
So bind my hands,
And weigh me down with a bag of sand.
I'm not a boy nor a helpless man,
I'm just fire now.
Something's holding me tightly, I can't break free.
I can't be all that I want or want to be.
Ohhh, It's got a hold on me.
Ohhh.
I'm tied to a fence, got a gun to my head.
But I'm as calm and content as can be.
Ohhh, It's got a hold on me.
(You can) Find me at the firing line, because one's too many then one's just fine. [x10]
(Slow me down, I need to breathe 'cause I'm forgetting how and I'm on fire now.) [x4]
