I am burning white fire
a candle burning at both ends
I love the heat, love the speed
until the room fills with smoke and I cannot breathe
I cannot see, I cannot be
drown in my delusional self-esteem
I am burnt out, I am tired
I am hurt now, I retire
I put my guard down, stop your fire
a candle burning at both ends
I cannot pretend it doesn't affect
me and how I see
me and how I move
me and how I need to prove
if you take it one step at a time, you could walk that mile by noon
sometimes you just gotta dissolve your ego and see it through
surrendering
