lyrics

Why am I so afraid of the flame?
So afraid of the pain?
I’ll hold out my hand & feel the fire.

Oh you’ve got to burn
Or you’ll never learn,
And there’s something that I want to tell you
But it will hurt.

So you want to run away,
Unhear what you heard.
Don’t feel discouraged!
And feel my message.

I fear I’ve lost a lifeline,
I fear I’ve lost a lifetime.

Oh you stubborn girl,
Won’t you ever learn?
Keep on pushing and pushing through fire
And you will earn it.

So you want to run away
So you want to run away
So you want to run away…

I fear I’ve lost a lifeline
I fear I’ve lost a lifetime

I am a friend
I am an enemy who’s friendly

But I don’t hear a sound.

I swear you were there looking down on me.
I swear you said that the reward is sweet,
It’s so sweet.

I fear I’ve lost a lifeline
I fear I’ve lost a lifetime

I am a friend,
I am an enemy who’s friendly
