the american hotel system - fire lyrics

Loading...

verse 1
i’ve heard that pens swing harder than swords
we fight with words in this war
the nib is a match, it ignites with a flash
consuming my heart with the roar

pre+chorus 1
words are the flames that burn in our lungs
consuming us all when they’re sung

chorus
they say fire will heal me, fire will cleanse me
fire will turn things around
but this fire is hurting; it’s making me dirty
fire is burning me down

verse 2
i’ve heard that pens cut deeper than knives;
the tools we abuse in this life
a heart that’s ablaze will keep singing the rage
and thinks it can tell you who’s right

pre+chorus 2
the flame that takes all is my judgment call
it lights as my gavel falls
chorus
they say fire will heal me, fire will cleanse me
fire will turn things around
but this fire is hurting; it’s making me dirty
fire is burning me down, yeah

verse 3
as long as i’ve lived i’ve used notes as a shiv
to stoke flames with eyes to the floor
so love help me see what my life could be
when i look up instead of ignore

chorus
they say fire will heal me, fire will cleanse me
fire will turn things around
but this fire is hurting; it’s making me dirty
fire is burning me down

end
yeah, i’ve heard that pens swing harder than swords
so we fight with words in this war
