I'll Still Be Here

Fire burns on my tongue
This anger doesn't hurt anyone
But me as you stand there cold
This fire cannot be controlled

Rainfall comes and it goes
But no relief has ever reached my soul
This fire won't get the best of me
Someday, it will live as a memory

As it burns up and my wounds heal
I will live it out, leave the pain you left behind
As the flames rise, oh, yes, so will I
When it burns up and there's nothing left to hide
I'll still be here, I'll still be here
With no more fear, I'll still be here

I've stayed keeping you warm for too long (for too long)
Betrayed myself to feel some love (feel some love)
No, you won't get the best of me (best of me)
I've learned only you can set yourself free

As it burns up and my wounds heal
I will live it out, leave the pain you left behind
As the flames rise, oh, yes, so will I
When it burns up and there's nothing left to hide
I'll still be here, I'll still be here
With no more fear, I'll still be here

You will never know the lengths I've had to go
To break open my heart and feel something that wasn't yours
As the ash begins to cool and the scars start to fade
I'll let go of this pain and find my own way

As it burns up and my wounds heal
I will live it out, leave the pain you left behind
As the flames rise, oh, yes, so will I
When it burns up and there's nothing left to hide
I'll still be here, I'll still be here
With no more fear, I'll still be here
