The world is on fire

It's too late to be calling, it's too early to be falling
So I keep my heart in a cage, and act my age.
It's too easy to be angry
I've been practicing for years
Avoiding this release
but now I'm squeezing out my tears
And there's no use pretending,
don't know who I'm defending anymore
The body keeps the score.

Yeah the world is on fire
but I still want to feel alive.
I don't wanna just exist
I wanna melt on your fingertips.
On your fingertips.

He said 'it's like breathing underwater'
and I had to agree.
In that single gold-lit moment
he'd seen that secret part of me.
That's the beauty of letting someone in,
mirrored reflections of yourself in them.

So yeah the world is on fire
but I still want to feel alive.
I don't wanna just exist
I wanna melt on your fingertips.
