Lyrics

On fire
They tell you where you need to go
They tell you when you'll need to leave
They tell you what you need to know
Tell you who you need to be

But everything inside you knows
There's more than what you've heard
Theres so much more than empty conversations
Filled with empty words

And you're on fire
When he's near you
You're on fire
When he speaks
You're on fire
Burning at these mysteries

Give me one more time around
Give me one more chance to see.. yeah
Give me everything you are
Give me one more chance to be... (near you) ah-yeah

What everything inside me looks like
Everything I hate
You are the hope I have for change
You are the only chance I'll take

When I'm on fire (fire)
When you're near me
I'm on fire (fire)
When you speak
And I'm on fire (fire)
Burning at these mysteries
These mysteries..

Mysteries... mysteries..

(Your on fire, [x3]) I'm standing on the edge of me [x4]
I'm standing on the edge of everything I've never been before
And I've been standing on the edge of me
I'm standing on the edge
And I'm on fire
When you're near me
I'm on fire
When you speak
..Yea.. I'm on fire
Burning at these mysteries..
These mysteries(2x)
Yeah your mystery, your mystery
