Connor McGee - Fire Lyrics

I find that I miss how I'd feel it all
I still crave the rush, the highs, and the falls
A storm can destroy all the things in its sight
You see I did the same and I just wasted my time

I followed each impulse, with no self-control
I took for granted good people I'd hold
It's hard letting wrong go when it feels so right
But I've gotta move on if I wanna survive

Somedays I wanna touch the fire just to get burned
Wanna jump into the ocean hold my breath 'til it hurts
Wanna scream like nothing else could ever leave my mouth
Wanna push you just to see how long you'll stick around

I'd get a high from things I shouldn't do
With no sense of self, I had nothing to lose
Chronically empty, stuck in black and white
I'm changing my actions and I'm healing my mind

If every decision affects someone else
It's not just myself I've been dragging through hell
I'm done saying sorry, the future is bright
It's time to leave the shadows and step into my light

Somedays I wanna touch the fire just to get burned
Wanna jump into the ocean hold my breath 'til it hurts
Wanna scream like nothing else could ever leave my mouth
Wanna push you just to see how long you'll stick around

But when it comes down to it

I don't wanna touch the fire, don't wanna burn
Don't wanna jump into the ocean, no, I'll stay ashore
Wanna live like nothing else could ever bring me down
Wanna keep you, let you know I want you sticking around
