lyrics
Must I seek
trouble in life
just to find something good?
Must I speak
in cynical lines
just to be understood?
Wait -
there's a fire on my sleeve
I've got a voice with which to sing
and that's enough.
Must we fake
being afraid
just to feel somewhat brave?
Must we wake
and suffer in chains
just till we watch them break?
Wait -
there's a fire on the street
it's making friends with all it meets
and that is all
I want.
Cause that's enough.
Must a life
shudder and fade
before we can know its name?
Must it end
just like song
singing a sad refrain?
