I’ve got it wrong
many time before
But I keep shown’ back up
lookin’ for more

I keep coming back around here
expecting it to change
but it’s the same tin roof
same maple tree
same lifeless eyes
no good for me.

I’m trying to fly
not wish
my time would just fly by

Live me life
full of adventure
joy
See that crazy train
I wanna jump aboard

can you blame a girl
for wanting more?

I must of been born to become a firefighter,
because I'm drawn to flame.
Put a spark in my eye
a burn in my touch,
and I'll fight it 'til I die.

I know it's not good for me
it darkens my soul
strengthens my mind
eliminates emotions-
leaves me cold

but I'm an addict
who can't say no.
I need the flames, the fire,
the raw burning desire.

I must of been born to be a firefighter
I've never been much good at boring-
the same.

I could never have worked at a desk.
because I look at love like a test.
You give me flame
I'll fight 'til death.

You know that hope you're grasping on to?
That's what I want to be.
Hold me close
Don't give up on me.

I dare you to look me in the eye
and tell me no.
I don't believe
you can let me go.
