Fighting for Flames

Like a candle at the end of it's wic
I'm fighting for the flames
Can't seem to quit
I cry in my bedroom with the curtains wide open
So you can see
Me...


Cover gasoline on hard wood floors
I've got the matches, yeah but
You've got the door
And you can't see...


I don't want to fight
I don't want to play games
I'm fighting for the light
I'm fighting for the flames
And you're blowing me out with each breath that you take
The ashes they fall with the love that we made
And you can't see...
I'm fighting for the flames


I've been burned so many times
I can't count the scars
I keep wondering how the hell we got where we are
I leave a trail of smoke where I go so you know how find
Find me...


The sun is setting on this Autumn day,
Winter year
This fireplace is no good to me
Without you here
I can't light you with my thoughts
What words will never make you feel
All I do is hold the little light left inside my tears


Oh, I don't want to fight
I don't want to play games
I'm fighting for the light
I'm fighting for the flames
And you're blowing me out with each breath that you take
The ashes they fall with the love that we made
And you can't see
I'm fighting for the flames

This little light of mine
This little light of mine
I'm going to let it shine
Let it, let it shine
Try to blow it out
Oh no
I'm going to let it shine
Let it shine
Let it shine
Let it shine
