The Fire

I sat looking out at the stars
Through a screen
Every move they made
Spun a hurricane in me

I was shooting in the driveway
Spin and then fade away
Gotta be like Mike
I'm gonna get there someday
Oh, oh, the horizon in my eyes

But when you're cut from the team, and all your dreams
Are further away, and so it seems
Like the earth shakes
And the world breaks

I saw the fire, I saw the fire
I-I wasn't ready for it then
I saw the fire, I saw the fire
I-I, I've got
Sparks inside my heart, brighter, bright
Oh, they're lighting up the night
I saw the fire, I saw the fire

I sat looking through a screen
When I got the news
That the one that I love
Would be the one that I lose

I was half a world away
Thinking that the world would wait
Change the plan, draw a map
I'm gonna get there someday
Oh, oh
But it's hard to say goodbye
Oh, oh
When the horizon's in your eyes

And suddenly all your dreams
Are further away, and so it seems
Like the earth shakes
And the world breaks

I saw the fire, I saw the fire
I-I wasn't ready for it then
I saw the fire, I saw the fire
I-I, I've got
Sparks inside my heart, brighter, bright
Oh, they're lighting up the night
I saw the fire, I saw the fire

When you're looking back
All the years to pass
And the warmth still running through your veins
When you're looking back (When you're looking back)
All the years have passed (All the years have passed)
And the smoke still remains
Oh, oh, oh

I saw the fire, I saw the fire

(I-I, I-I)
I saw the fire, I saw the fire
(I-I, I-I)
I saw the fire, I saw the fire
(I-I, I-I)
I saw the fire, I saw the fire
(I-I, I-I)
I saw the fire, I saw the fire
