Hi everyone. Today's lyrics.
Fireplace
Verse 1:
Sometimes when I sit in my living room
filled with tragedy and gloom.
There is only one thing that burns
and the night learns....
Chorus:
Cause in the nights that felt like hell
your flames where lit well.
You were my only safe place,
so I return to the fireplace.
Even though my heart will race,
while the ghosts of nights chase,
I will return to the fireplace.
Verse 2
The crackle speaks in quiet tones,
warming up my frozen bones.
Outside, the cold tries breaking in,
but sparks fly high beneath my skin.
They built the walls, but you held the flame
the only light that knows my name.
Chorus:
'Cause in the nights that felt like hell,
your flames were lit well.
You were my only safe place,
so I return to the fireplace.
Even though my heart will race,
while the ghosts of nights chase,
I will return to the fireplace.
Bridge:
Let the shadows dance across the floor,
I ain't hiding in the dark no more.
Ashes fall, but the embers stay
burning every single ghost away.
Yeah, you burn them all away!
Final Chorus:
'Cause in the nights that felt like hell,
your flames were lit well.
You were my only safe place,
so I return to the fireplace.
My heart don't have to race,
let the ghosts of nights chase
'Cause I survived at the fireplace.
Outro:
Just me and the smoke...
As the fire spoke.
My safe place...
Fireplace.
