When i was eighteen everything was alive
Then the planes hit the towers
Then she died and he died
A part of me disappeared six feet in the ground
A million miles in the sky a fire burns,
A fire burns, a fire burns and it is mine

And i did what i did
What we did to survive
Five whole years of my life i spent mourning you and why?
Girl you're still alive
But you're too dead to keep inside
You take the years, you keep it all, i finally think i might be alright

So lets just let it all go cause nothing can change
And if something is lost then there's something to frame
I just sing what i have
And i got this girl, not yet crushed by the world
Ill count the freckles on her face one, two, three hundred times a day

And sing a new song
Something i'd never here
Its BETTER LOVE that i found, bigger love that you fear
So deep inside me, hot in this frozen cave
Her fire burns, her fire burns, her fire burns and it is brave

When i was eighteen everything was alive
Then the planes hit the towers
Then she died, then he died
A part of me disappeared six feet in the ground
A million miles in the sky a fire burns,
A fire burns, and i just let it all go

I wont fear change
And if something is lost then there is something to frame
Ill just sing what i have in the heavens above
In the song in the sky a fire burns,
A fire burns, a fire burns and its for you
