gerald potts - fireplace lyrics

[verse 1]
i saw the angel in the sky
he looked at me as if to say
“my son, i know you’re tryin’, but you’re fallin’ far behind”
i didn’t know which way to go
so i ran inside and locked the door
but he walked right through the walls, and then suddenly, i was blinded to the time
i was in, and where i thought i needed to begin
so i broke down, and started crying
then he looked me in the eye, and this is what i heard him say

[chorus]
“my son, don’t you cry to me
now pack your bags, it’s time to leave
we’re goin’ on a journey, yes, you’ll lеave this all behind
you may not know which way to go
but trust me, son, you’ll know for surе
the path that you will need to take in your own due time”
i said, “why’d you flip me upside down?
i was finally on solid ground
you know the place i live already has a fireplace”
he told me, “son, don’t you know?
a fireplace still needs good fuel to make a fire grow, yeah”

[verse 2]
i ran up to the attic door
i reached right up and pulled the cord
a stairway fell, revealing a decision in my faith
i could go and hide away
’til a bad day sends me to my grave
or run outside on the porch, and realize just what i knew all along
i can’t control who i’m meant to be or where i came from
so i packed my car, and drove away
with his words still repeating behind my starry gaze
[chorus]
“my son, don’t you cry to me
now pack your bags, it’s time to leave
we’re goin’ on a journey, yes, you’ll leave this all behind
you may not know which way to go
but trust me, son, you’ll know for sure
the path that you will need to take in your own due time”
i said, “why’d you flip me upside down?
i was finally on solid ground
you know the place i live already has a fireplace”
he told me, “son, don’t you know?
a fireplace still needs good fuel to make a fire grow, yeah”

[bridge]
lock me up, burn me down, throw my ashes to the wind
you know i’ll have a brand new face when i see this town again
oh, lock me up, and burn me down, throw my ashes in the wind
you know i’ll have a brand new face when i see this town again
oh, lock me up, and burn me down, throw my ashes in the wind
you know i’ll have a brand new face when i see this town again
oh, lock me up, and burn me down, throw my ashes in the wind
you know i’ll have a brand new face when i see this town again
lock me up, and burn me down, throw my ashes in the wind
you know i’ll have a brand new face when i see this town again
oh, lock me up, and burn me down, throw my ashes in the wind
you know i’ll have a brand new face when i see this town again
oh, lock me up, and burn me down, throw my ashes in the wind
you know i’ll have a brand new face when i see this town again
oh, lock me up, and burn me down, throw my ashes in the wind
you know i’ll have a brand new face when i see this town again
oh+oh, oh+oh, oh+oh, oh+oh+oh
oh+oh, oh+oh, oh+oh, oh
