Into the Fire Lyrics

Open my eyes to the morning

Repeat that same old vow

Today will be the day

I get myself in line

But later when the evening comes

Discretion starts to wane

And maybe tomorrow'd

Be a better time to change

Locking out the shame

With the key that opened the door

When it came around

And knocked the night before

Oh I don't know why

I keep running back into the fire

Frightened to lose the trappings

I've been trying to leave behind

Never one to walk the rope

Without a net below

But baby I'm trying

Maybe it's 'cause I am lonely

Or maybe the revelry

Or maybe the comfort

Of knowing what needs fixed

But every time I think I've made

My break and I am free

The siren keeps coming back

To sing her song for me

Locking out the shame

With the key that opened the door

When it came around

And knocked the night before

And the night before then

Oh I don't know why

I keep running back into the fire

Frightened to lose the trappings

I've been trying to leave behind

Never one to walk the rope

Without a net below

But baby I'm trying

Lord I'm trying

Seeking asylum inside

Of a prison cell

Telling myself that it's

Time to be free

But I've cried wolf

Far too many times

To believe a word that I say

How can I regain

My faith in me

Oh I don't know why

I keep running back into the fire

Frightened to lose the trappings

I've been trying to leave behind

Never one to walk the rope

Without a net below

But baby I'm trying

Lord I'm trying

Woah ooo whoa oh

Woah ooo whoa oh

Woah ooo oh

Woah ooo oh oh

Woah ooo oh oh oh

Woah ooo oh

Oh ooo oh

Woah ooo oh oh

Woah ooo oh

Oh ooo oh oh

Woah ooo oh oh oh

Open my eyes to the morning

Repeat that same old vow

Today will be the day

I get myself in line
