Lavender Fire

It's burned in my heart since the day I was born
Never knew the word for what this light was called
But I knew it was there, and I tried to hide it
Somewhere in the sky, tried to keep it small

Til it grew and grew and I knew
That I couldn't be what's inside
A lavender fire
(Lavender fire)
(Lavender fire)
Lavender fire
(Lavender fire)
(Lavender fire)

It glowed in the night even when my rivers tried
To wash all the light, well it would burn through the day
And all of my shame; why'd my flames always burn for her
And never for him? But I tried him anyway

Til it grew and grew and I knew (ohhhhhhh)
That I had to be what's inside (ohhhhhh)
Now I'll leave it there let them stare (ohhhhhh)
Their black and white I've left behind (ohhhhh)
For lavender fire
(Lavender fire)
(Lavender fire)
Lavender fire
(Lavender fire)
(Lavender fire)
My lavender fire

For all those years and all the tears
I cried in black and white, I had to hide
For all those years and all the tears
I cried in black and white, I had to hide

Til it grew and grew and I knew
That I couldn't live someone else's life
Now it's time to be all of me
Let it touch the sky 'cause I won't hide
I won't hide no I won't hide
This lavender fire
(Lavender fire)
(Lavender fire)
Lavender fire
(Lavender fire)
(Lavender fire)
My lavender fire
