I caught fire
Set my world ablaze
But not in time
Burned the image in my line of sight
Too late to douse and now all I see
I’ll find joy in everything
When I couldn’t meet you in the middle
The color drained right away from my face
Lit a match under my door
I’m burning light and bruising more
Flickered out and shutting down
Then I saw light
Set my heart ablaze and now I shine
Burn the memory and wonder why
It feels like it’s still all up in smoke
I take a breath and then I choke
But I won’t ever try to fly away
I’m gonna cherish everything
When I couldn’t meet you in the middle
The color drained right away from my face
Lit a match under my door
I’m burning light and bruising more
Flickered out and shutting down
But I’m awake
I found my flame
Hold on to yesterday
A brighter day, a better place
A memory to keep me safe until I burn out
When life is in your way
And all the minutes feel the same
A memory to light your flame until it burns out
Cause everything I need is in my pocket
Everyone I love is in my corner here
Everything I need is in my pocket
Everyone I love is in my corner here
When I couldn’t meet you in the middle
The color drained right away from my face
