lyrics
Into the bright,
startling light,
I could survive.
and when I'm gone,
I will be done,
it will be done.
Struggle to learn,
awaiting my turn,
starting the burn.
protecting my place,
foot on the brakes,
keeping it safe.
I want to fly,
tasting the sky,
riding the high.
Too much to lose,
What if I lose?
I cannot try.
I fear change and I'm getting old.
I fear change but I'm getting bored.
I like it here, I like my ways, I'm comfortable.
If I'm on fire, let me burn.
Chances appear,
overcome fear,
I could be near.
Try not to choke,
choosing the cloak,
I'm staying here.
Aim for the stage,
A coming of age,
Come to my aid.
Entropy steals,
Exigent pleas,
Exeunt dreams.
think I can see,
unchained and free,
soaring with ease.
Too much to lose,
So much to prove,
I have to choose,
If I'm on fire, if I'm not on fire, set me on fire.
I fear change and I'm getting old.
I fear change but I'm getting bored.
I like it here, I like my ways, I'm comfortable.
If I'm on fire, let me burn.
I seem to strive,
tethered and tied.
Must override.
blind to the tale,
never derailed,
Inert and stale.
I want to take.
Upping the stakes.
Give me some cake.
I cannot find,
solace in time,
why pay the fine?
Into the dark?
Endless and stark?
or beauty of art?
Can't take the chance.
Won't take a stance.
Time waits for no man.
I fear change and I'm getting old.
I fear change but I'm getting bored.
I like it here, I like my ways, I'm comfortable.
If I'm on fire, let me burn.
