I see fire on the horizon I hear an echo in the silence From the ashes the smoke is rising With each flicker and flame I feel the pressure, the pain Oh no Oh no Well I'm moving closer Despite the warnings Though I know it's gonna burn It's gonna hurt But could these scars prove I'm worthy I've got fire in my bones boy A song to be heard Oh yeah Oh yeah Well if I'm gonna burn out bright At least I'm gonna do it right With every lesson I'm learning Keep the fire burnin' And if I go down in flames At least you're gonna know my name Let the world keep turnin' Keep the fire burnin' Burnin' me Alive Burnin' me Alive I feel this ember inside me Through the cold, dark nights It guides me But could I give it up And go blindly I'll give it one more shot If it's all I've got To give Well if I'm gonna burn out bright At least I'm gonna do it right With every lesson I'm learning Keep the fire burnin' And if I go down in flames At least you're gonna know my name Let the world keep turnin' Keep the fire burnin' Burnin' me Alive Burnin' me Alive Yeah, it's burning me up Boiling under my skin Knowing I could give up Yeah I could give in But the only thing that's steady Is the beat that I feel The dreams that come true I've seen it, it's real So you can't tell me no There's nothing on the other side I've been there I know No hope is too high No dream is too big No vision too wide I'll do whatever it takes Yeah I'll walk through the fire Come on! Well if I'm gonna burn out bright At least I'm gonna do it right With every lesson I'm learning Keep the fire burnin' And if I go down in flames At least you're gonna know my name Let the world keep turnin' Keep the fire burnin' Burnin' me Alive With every lesson I'm learning Keep the fire burnin' Burnin' me Alive Let the world keep turning Keep the fire burnin' Burnin' me Alive
