Fireflight Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The ones that lie to me and steal away my pride
I wish I could be blind to everything that haunts me,
If I use my heart, I can see your face
You show me the real me
[Chorus]
It's You that I search for
Your hope is what I long for
When nothing's left in me
It's You
This world is always trying to take a piece of me
But you are always there to make me feel complete
If I can keep my eyes on what you have for me
I will face the truth, and never look away
You'll show me the real me
[Bridge]
When I have nowhere else to go
And I can't find my way out
Your light it comes to guide me
I can't hide you show me the real me
