Burn Me Alive

I was told I feel too much That I build a world from one touch Maybe they were right before Then you walked in through that door I didn’t ask for heaven I didn’t ask for signs But something in your silence Put a fire into mine You were never loud with me Never said what I should believe Just a look across the room And my heart knew what to do Maybe I was foolish Maybe I was blind But I saw a kind of future In the way you stayed behind And I don’t need the world to understand I don’t need their mercy in my hands If this burns me down, I’ll still admit I was never more alive than this Burn me alive If this is what it feels like To want someone so deep You forget how to survive Burn me alive If loving you is wildfire Then let the sky go red Let the dark turn into light They can call us madness They can call us wrong But every time you look at me I know where I belong Burn me alive Burn me alive If this is love, then I Don’t want to hide You never gave me answers Only pieces of the sun Just enough to keep me breathing Never enough to make me run I held you in the quiet Where nobody could see But the truth became a mountain Standing right between you and me And I don’t need a promise made of gold I just need a hand I get to hold If you feel the fire, say my name If you don’t, don’t leave me in the flames Burn me alive If this is what it feels like To want someone so deep You forget how to survive Burn me alive If loving you is wildfire Then let the sky go red Let the dark turn into light They can call us madness They can call us wrong But every time you look at me I know where I belong Burn me alive Burn me alive If this is love, then I Don’t want to hide I am not a shadow I am not a prayer I am not a secret You can leave somewhere I am all the trembling I am all the flame I am what you started When you looked my way So if you ever loved me Even half as much Don’t leave me here reaching For a ghost of your touch Burn me alive If this is what it feels like To want someone so deep You forget how to survive Burn me alive If loving you is wildfire Then let the sky go red Let the dark turn into light They can call us madness They can call us wrong But every time you look at me I know where I belong Burn me alive Burn me alive If this is love, then I Don’t want to hide Burn me alive… Burn me alive… If this was love… At least I know I tried…
