Fuel the Fire By Amy Matthew
V1) SOMETHIN’S PUMPIN IN MY VEINS
IT’S OUT THERE CALLIN TO ME
IT’S A FEELING GRABBIN HOLD
WITH SUCH INTENSITY..
I CANT DESCRIBE IT-BUT IM SURROUNDED
IT’S TAKING OVER AND WANTS CONTROL OF ME
SOMETHIN’S OUT THERE PROWLIN
IT KNOWS MY UNCERTAINTY
SO INSTEAD IT YANKS ME TOWARDS IT
AND WON’T LET GO OF ME.
IT’S A CALLING-IT’S A LONGING
AND NOW I HAVE TO ANSWER TRUTHFULLY TO
CH) FUEL THE FIRE
THEN SEND IT SWIRLING
LOOKIN FOR A WAY OUT
IT KEEPS YOU MOVING
SEEKING PLEASURE
THROUGH THE PAIN
IT WON’T GIVE UP TILL YOU MAKE A CHANGE
FUEL THE FIRE
AND FEEL ITS BURNING
THE DRIVE INSIDE YOU
KEEPS ON YEARNING
FOR A DESIRE
TO PRESAVERE
ONCE IT CONSUMES YOU
THERES NO OTHER WAY
SO YOU HAVE TO FEED THE FLAME!
V2) SOMETHIN’S PRESSIN ON MY HEART
AND I CAN FEEL ITS BEAT
A POUNDING IN MY HEAD
THAT WANTS TO BREAK FREE
IT’S GETTING HOTTER- AND IT’S BRIGHTER
TILL I HAVE TO GIVE IN
TO THAT CREATIVE PASSION THAT FLOWS AGAIN
SOMETHIN’S TAKEN OVER MY MIND
AND NOW IM COMING ALIVE
I CAN FEEL THE NEGATIVITY BREAKING DOWN
SO NOW I HAVE TO TRY
CUZ IT’S A HUNGER AND NOW IT’S STRONGER
EVERYTIME I WANT TO GIVE IN THEN IT PUSHES ME TO SAY..
CH) REPEAT
BRIDGE: EVERYONE WHO HAS EVER HAD A DREAM
WOULD AGREE
WHEN IT COMES TO YOUR TALENT
THEN IT’S A LIVING, BREATHING THING
I CAN’T EXPLAIN WHY I HAVE TO KEEP GOING
IT’S JUST A FORCE THAT’S NEVER ENDING
EVERYTIME THAT I FEED THE FIRE
IT’S LIKE A DRUG THAT TAKES ME HIGHER!
