Oh, what a cold dark world it is to walk through alone with a fear-filled head Thinking of losing you is a haunted song And a dread much worse than the fear of dead Now I feel the fear rising up Climbing up, taking over my body And I feel my pulse starting up, waking me again Open my eyes I'm reaching for you Set me on fire Set me on fire I'm burning inside I'm waiting for you Set me on fire Set me on fire Your hand in mine, oh, I feel the fire Two hearts that beat, oh, to feel the fire You are a spark that shines a light where we could belong together, factionless Let's keep it burning bright 'til we're floating away 'Til we're ashes dancing inside the flames Now I feel the fear rising up Climbing up, taking over my body And I feel my pulse starting up, waking me again Open my eyes I'm reaching for you Set me on fire Set me on fire I'm burning this time I'm waiting for you Set me on fire Set me on fire!! Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh Your hands in mine, oh, I feel the fire Two hearts that beat, ooh, to feed the fire Open my eyes I'm reaching for you Set me on fire Set me on fire I'm burning inside I'm waiting for you Set me on fire Set me on fire Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh Set me on fire Set me on fire Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh Set me on fire Set me on fire!!
