And the flames they are licking at the corners of my fear
And my mind it is saying it's too hot to stay here
And my heart is crying tears that dry before they fall
But my gut says 
Stand here in the fire
Stand tall

And let it burn let it burn
Let it all fall away
All the silence and the hatred and the putrid decay

There's a wolf and he's baring his teeth in the flames
Waiting for the moment 
When all of the shame that I held and I nurtured and I called my own
Disintegrates so that he can lead me home

So let it burn let it burn
Let it all fall away
All the silence and the hatred and the putrid decay

There's a tribe on the horizon and they're waiting for me
They've been there all along but I just couldn't see
Through the stories that I heard in the dark dark times
Of a grey little girl 
And her silly little rhymes
Now she's all grown up and the colours are back
And she's ready to move forward on her beautiful track

So let it burn let it burn
Let it all fall away
All the silence and the hatred and the putrid decay

As the flames they keep licking at the corners of my fear
And my mind it is saying it's too hot to stay here
And my heart is crying tears that dry before they fall
But my gut says 
Stand here in the fire
Stand tall
