Lyrics:
Against the fire
You've taught me how to ask without a thought
To speak without my notes
To laugh at all those liars
Now teach me how to jump without a rope
To dive without support
To run against the fire
You've taught me how to speak up for my own
To get lost in a doubt
To touch without a word
Now teach me how to face 'em when they shout
To meet my braver me
To stand up when it hurts
You've taught me how to write between the lines
To
Come home without a key
To get drunk on a sound
Now teach me how to claim a different truth
To scream without a cry
To keep what's going down
You've taught me how to turn thoughts into guns
To stay there when it burns
To make love through a song
Now teach me how to leave you in return
To wait until it's done
To teach you when you're wrong
