Fire - Live 5.27.21

I've heard that pens
Swing harder than swords
So we fight with words
In this war
The nib is a match
It ignites with a flash
Consuming my heart
With the roar

Words are the flames
That burn in our lungs
Consuming us all
When they're sung

They say
Fire will heal me
Fire will cleanse me
Fire will turn
Things around
But this fire is hurting
Making me dirty
Fire is burning me down

I've heard that pens
Cut deeper than knives
The tools we abuse
In this life
A heart that's ablaze
Will keep singing the rage
And thinks it can tell you
Who's right

The flame that takes all
Is my judgement call
It lights as my
Gavel falls

They say
Fire will heal me
Fire will cleanse me
Fire will turn
Things around
But this fire is hurting
Making me dirty
Fire is burning me down

As long as I've lived
I've used notes as a shiv
To stoke flames
With eyes to the floor
So love help me see
What my life could be
When I look up
Instead of ignore

They say
Fire will heal me
Fire will cleanse me
Fire will turn
Things around
But this fire is hurting
Making me dirty
Fire is burning me down

Yeah
I've heard that pens
Swing harder than swords
So we fight with words
In this war
