Like a Fire (song-2013)

My eyes are getting heavier

I can’t sleep anymore

I’ve got heartache up to the ceiling

Insecurity knockin on my door

Is this just a moment?

Am I still getting by?

Can I turn the tables back around

And how hard do I have to try?

*chorus*

This is like a fire (a fire)

This is like a fire

You can put out the flames but the damage is done

Now my faith is shaken and I gotta move on

(easier said than done)

*end chorus*

I’m thinking things I shouldn’t be

How do I get out?

Do I even want to?

Can anybody hear me shout?

Is this just a road block?

Will I make it by?

Can I turn the tables back around

And how hard do I have to try?

*chorus*

This is like a fire(a fire)

This is like a fire

You can put out the flames but the damage is done

Now my faith is shaken and I gotta be strong

(easier said than done)

This is like a rerun (a rerun)

This is like a rerun

Even though I know what’s gonna happen

I’m standing on my toes

Praying for a new scene but it never comes

*end chorus*

Why?

Where did I go wrong?

Whats my mistake this time?

So why?

Where did I go wrong?

What’s my mistake this time?

*end song*

Author's Note

I was stuck in a vicious cycle.

Very cool. I like this, have you written the music or have a melody in mind for this piece? I too am a songwriter. Happy to have read you.

All of my songs at least have a vocal melody so it could be sung strictly acapella. Only a few have acoustic or electric guitar to them. This one only has vocals.

[Jack...]

It would be nice to hear it sometime. Have you ever put any of your music on Soundcloud? Then you can post a link here so we can hear the song.

[Be A Fighter]

Not yet. I will.soon.

[Jack...]

Please let me know when you do.
