Words And Fire Lyrics

Words And Fire lyrics

These words don't come easy

They spit from my lips

Then we never had it easy

It slipped from our fingertips



When we met, you laughed at me

And stole my last cigarette

Said you wanted to share a past with me

Tomorrow's the day to forget

And you said



Just give me a reason

To carry on, to carry on

Just give me a reason

To carry on, to carry on



Now I've come unhinged

I'm a door in a frame

Well, I'm never quite closed

But I ain't open to change



So my knuckles are bruised

From knocking on wood

Well, it's a trick that I've used

Perhaps more than I should

And I said



Just give me a reason

To carry on, to carry on

Just give me a reason

To carry on, to carry on



'Cause a heart is just a heart

It can break and fall apart

It can bleed and stop and start

'Cause a heart is just a heart



Mix your words with fire

I'll let them burn me down

Let them ring in the air

Like the bells of an old mining town



Just give me a reason

To carry on, to carry on

Just give me a reason

To carry on, to carry on



Just give me a reason

To carry on, to carry on

Just give me a reason

To carry on, to carry on



Just give me a reason

To carry on, to carry on

Just give me a reason

To carry on, to carry on



Just give me a reason

To carry on, to carry on

I just want a reason

To carry on, to carry on
