Your words clung to my heartstrings
Hitchhikers on my favorite dress i couldn’t pull off anyway

Burning now, released from my chains
I'm clawing towards the light
No burnout from this flamethrowing fury
Ten thousand fires ignite

Full throttle, hit the ground running
With the passion to excel

God help those who think I'm giving up here....
