Caught On Fire
Long ago we'd been
Holding hands, laughing at
Every single word we heard
But somehow it all burnt down
And i no longer know
Where we stand
It's like all we were
Got caught on fire
And i'm waiting to see
That if among the ashes i can find
Something worth fighting for
Who i am is not
Who you knew and
Who you are is
Far from who i fell for
And i wonder;
Why do we keep pretending?
We no longer have each other's backs
What are we holding onto?
It's not each other 'cause
We're so far away
that i can barely see you
We're caught on fire and i hope
That once we're done burning
And all there's left is ashes
We can finally rest in peace
Holding hands, laughing at
Every single word we heard
But somehow it all burnt down
And i no longer know
Where we stand
It's like all we were
Got caught on fire
And i'm waiting to see
That if among the ashes i can find
Something worth fighting for
Who i am is not
Who you knew and
Who you are is
Far from who i fell for
And i wonder;
Why do we keep pretending?
We no longer have each other's backs
What are we holding onto?
It's not each other 'cause
We're so far away
that i can barely see you
We're caught on fire and i hope
That once we're done burning
And all there's left is ashes
We can finally rest in peace
