Sia)I can feel the heat risingEverything is on fireToday's a painful reminder of whyWe can only get brighterThe further you put it behind yaAnd right now I'm on the insideLooking out, cause[– Sia]I'm standing in the flamesand it's a beautiful kind of painSetting fire to yesterdayFind a light, find a light, find a lightStanding in the flamesand it's a beautiful kind of painSetting fire to yesterdayFind a light, find a light, find a lightYesterday was the tornado warning, today is like the morning afterYour world is torn in half.
You wake and let's wait to start the morning processRebuilding and you're still a work in progress.
Today is a whole new chapter, it's like anenormous ass.
The thunderstorm has passed ya.
Your weather didn't poke his eyes out with the thorn bush that you used to smell the roses.
Stopped to inhale, can't even tell your nose is stuffed.
So focused on the bright side.
Then you floor the gas pedal and hit the corner fast, the more asserted, never looking back, may hit the curb, but everyday is a new learning curve as you steer through life.
Sometimes you might not wanna swervebut you have to to avert a disaster.
Lucky, no permanent damage,'Cause they hurt you so bad.
It's like they murdered your ass and threw dirt on your casket, but you returned from the ashes.
And that hurt that you have, you just converted to gasoline, and while you're burning the past, standing at inferno and chant[– Sia]So familiarize what having to swallow this pill is likeIt happens all the time, they take your heart and steal your lifeAnd it's as though you feel you've died because you've been killed insideBut yet you're still alive which means you will surviveAlthough today you may weep because you're weak andEverything seems so bleek and hopelessThe light that you're seeking, it begins to seep inThat's the only thing keeping you from leaping off the motherfreaking deep endAnd I'm pulling for you to push through this feelingAnd with a little time that should do the healingAnd by tomorrow you may even feel so good that you're willingTo forgive them even after all that shit you been put through.
This feeling of resilience is building.
And the flames are burning quick as fire would through this building you're sealed inBut you're fireproof, and flame retardant you withstood it.
And as you climb up to the roof you're just chillin' and you look down'Cause you're so over them you could put the heel of your foot through the ceiling.
As time passes, things change everydayBut wounds, wounds healBut scars still remain the sameBut tomorrow today's gone down in flamesThrow the match, set the past up placeSo feel the fire beneath your feetAs you barely even perspire from the heatExhale deep and breathe a sigh of reliefAnd as you say goodbye to the griefIt's like watching the walls melt in your prison cellBut you've extinguished this living hellStill a little piece of you dies, you scream[– Sia]I feel the burn, watch the smoke as I turnrising, a phoenix from the flamesI have learned, we're going to fight the world, fightNow it feels with these wings that I will fly[– Sia]
