I was on my knees
By the end of my bed
Back when I still had my faith
And hopeful tears poisoned me
I tried to confess, I did my very best, dear
But the truth is, they poisoned me against myself
I did everything I could to hold on to his hand
I floundered with a voice in my head
My world is on fire
And he’s to blame
It’s all just an illusion
It’s everything we ever believed in
to keep us put
To fill in all my free time
You forced it in
You beat it in
And he swears to his love
That his children would never cry in the presence of his divinity
But all he brings is pain and heartache
I tried my best not to wonder
He toughed on my tether
And I fallowed the voice
I’m on fire, it’s more than I can handle
But I do know he’s to blame
I tried to bring more to the table
It was more than I could bear
If I could tell the priest and the nuns
I would seek penance and repent myself
but only if I could look your god right in the eye
These days honey
I would suffer the consequence of his order
And all the sinners who do not pay
They’ve set there toll on me, but I am without crime
Because dear, oh
I am what I am,
because I am
And I’ll do whatever I want
I’ll rampage coming down the hallway
I’ll burn the cross
And little gingerbread men run around in my head
My world is on fire
It’s more than I can bear
No one cares to hear
I’ve been alone for so long
that I am empty of voice
but not without words
My world is on Fire
Its more than I can handle
I stumble, blind to every shadow
I try to give more, but there’s nothing I can bear
There’s nothing left of me to give,
Everything's on fire
