Burn free
Drain me dry, drain me dry
Oh, you tried didn't you; oh, you tried
Didn't know what you walked into
Didn't know it would smother you
Waste my time, waste my time
Oh, you tried didn't you; oh, you tried
Well, you're walking a thin line
Not watching the warning signs
You didn't see the fire behind the trees
Thought you found everything you could ever need
But there are flames that cannot be tamed
I don't know where you thought this would go, but
You can't go with me;
I burn free
Change my mind, change my mind
Oh, you tried didn't you; oh, you tried
Didn't know I do my thinking alone
Where I go is a path of my own
Cross the line, cross the line
Oh, you tried didn't you; oh, you tried
Learned that you burn when you're playing with fire
No, I can't be turned but I can rise higher
You didn't see the fire behind the trees
Thought you found everything you could ever need
But there are flames that cannot be tamed
Don't know where you thought this would go, but
You can't go with me;
I burn free
