Fireproof

What a shame it's gone to waste
We sit around waiting to be replaced.
Promises sucked dry of all meaning
Innocent hearts dying.
I wait in this shadowed room,
for a love song to consume
me again.
Another night spent
thinking of you wherever you are
---------------
*(chorus)*
Oh no, can you feel the pressure
crushing down on you heart?
well sure enough,
it's getting thicker and thicker.
Making me Sicker, and sicker
trying to swallow this burning feeling
upside down, staring at the ceiling.

I don't want to let on
That I haven't let this go,
I'm still waiting for a miracle to show
it's face, clear and strong
I'm running out of oxygen
barely holding onto my pen
---------
*Chorus

Bridge:
Why do we love to leave these hearts burning in the sun?
Smiling, until there's nothing that can be done
------
*Chorus
