Hold Me in the Fire Lyrics
If this is ending, I prefer it to be quick
We can’t fix this, until we break it with sticks
Of this recurring thought that maybe we’ll be alright
So don’t give up, now, baby
The fight, the fight, the fight, the fight
The fight you learn to love keeps you alive
But the love you learned to fight, it keeps you numb
If everything you are is built on memories
You won’t ever be here with me
You won’t ever be here with me
Hold me in the fire till it’s alright
Hold me in the hurt until we’re free
Don’t let go of my hands till it’s daylight
I can’t tell where you end and I begin
No, I can’t tell where you end and I begin
If you were watching, can you tell me how I did?
‘Cause I can taste it, ’cause all these fires know where we hid?
Of this recurring dream that everything is alright
So don’t give up, now, baby
The fight, the fight, the fight, the fight
The fight you learn to love keeps you alive
But the love you learned to fight, it keeps you numb
If everything you are is built on memories
You won’t ever be here with me
You won’t ever be here with me
Hold me in the fire till it’s alright
Hold me in the hurt until we’re free
Don’t let go of my hands till it’s daylight
I can’t tell where you end and I begin
No, I can’t tell where you end and I begin
So if nothing’s broken, then be brave
‘Cause at least I’m open to the magic that you make
And if I barely know which way to fall into you now
It’s ’cause I can’t tell where you end and I begin
No, I can’t tell where you end and I begin
