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
