You Were On Fire歌词

You were on fire--Keren Ann
I've never seen you clear before

I've never heard you cry

My blinded heart has washed ashore

My innocence's gone dry

And i wish i had more patience

There are things i can't reverse

I don't know why you were so threatened

By the entire universe

You were on fire

Tainted in the sun

You ran against the raging wind

Decadent and drunken with desire

Fooling the love of everyone

Your reverence in flames

Your eyes were golden and awake

You were on fire

No one's ever saved you

You only saw him bleed

And his sorrow misbehaved you

To avenge and not to plead

But out here there is no other

Who's seen you broken down

Bare and blameless for your lover

Bold and fearless for the crowd
You were on fire

Tainted in the sun

You ran against the raging wind

Decadent and drunken with desire

Fooling the love of everyone

Your reverence in flames

Your eyes were golden and awake

You were on fire
You were on fire

Fooling the love of everyone
Your reverence in flames
Your eyes were golden and awake
You were on fire
