Set me on fire...I will raise again!

Night lift up the shades let in the brilliant light of morning but steady there now for I am weak and starving for mercy sleep has left me alone to carry the weight of unravelling where we went wrong it's all I can do to hang on to keep me from falling into old familiar shoes how stupid could I be a simpleton could see that you're no good for me but you're the only one I see love has made me a fool it set me on fire and watched as I floundered unable to speak except to cry out and wait for your answer but you come around in your time speaking of fabulous places create an oasis dries up as soon as you're gone you leave me here burning in this desert without you how stupid could I be a simpleton could see that you're no good for me but you're the only one I see everything changes everything falls apart can't stop to feel myself losing control but deep in my senses I know Heaven bent to take my hand And lead me through the fire Be the long awaited answer To a long and painful fight Truth be told I've tried my best But somewhere along the way I got caught up in all there was to offer And the cost was so much more than I could bear Though I've tried, I've fallen... I have sunk so low I have messed up Better I should know So don't come round here And tell me I told you so... We all begin with good intent Love was raw and young We believed that we could change ourselves The past could be undone But we carry on our backs the burden Time always reveals The lonely light of morning The wound that would not heal It's the bitter taste of losing everything That I have held so dear. I've fallen... I have sunk so low I have messed up Better I should know So don't come round here And tell me I told you so... Heaven bent to take my hand Nowhere left to turn I'm lost to those I thought were friends To everyone I know Oh they turned their heads embarassed Pretend that they don't see But it's one missed step You'll slip before you know it And there doesn't seem a way to be redeemed Though I've tried, I've fallen... I have sunk so low I have messed up Better I should know So don't come round here And tell me I told you so... Why do I feel this songs was inspired by my life!
