Roman Candle

There's a new day a coming
The spirit of change is settling in
Wolves may be still circling me
But I don't let them in
Some roads they go on forever
Some roads they come to an end
When the flames they rise will you be surprised
When I'm rising there with them
Look out! I'm hot, I'm dangerous

I will shine I'm a Roman Candle in the night
Burning bright the only star in the sky
That's right

Someone close once told me
It's all about the choices that you make
Lately I've been making mine
And living through the waves
Make no mistake about it
Out here it's razor thin
There'll be a day when it all goes away
But baby until then, light me up I'm going quick

I will shine I'm a Roman Candle in the night
Burning bright a flash of light before your eyes
Burning bright, that's right, all night
Out of sight, burning bright

I thought I'd know, I thought I'd know it by now
But now I know you never figure it out

I will shine I'm a Roman Candle in the night
Burning bright a flash of light before your eyes
Out of sight the only star in your sky
That's right, burning bright, all night
