Helene Nissen Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Turn another page
Lost another day
Holding all that madness in your heart
Praying for relief
Trying to believe
Keep hanging on to every broken part

Don't let the moment that you lose control

Be the one that decides where you fall

If you wanna feel
Then you gotta fight
If you wanna live
Gotta run through the wildfire
You gotta hurt
If you wanna heal
If you wanna love
Gotta run through the wildfire

You've forgotten what you're after
You wake from every dream
You see the signs but you don't know what they mean
You're looking for an answer
But you're too afraid to ask
For anything and everything that lasts

Don't let the moment that you lose control
Be the one that decides where you fall

If you wanna feel
Then you gotta fight
If you wanna live
Gotta run through the wildfire
You gotta hurt
If you wanna heal
If you wanna love
Gotta run through the wildfire

Oh Ohh Ohh
Run through the wildfire
Oh Ohh Ohh
Don't let the moment that you lose control
Be the one that decides where you fall

If you wanna feel
Then you gotta fight
If you wanna live
You Gotta run
If you wanna feel (you wanna feel)
Then you gotta fight (you gotta fight)
If you wanna live
Gotta run through the wildfire
You gotta hurt (You gotta hurt)
If you wanna heal (If you wanna heal)
If you wanna love
Gotta run through the wildfire

(Oh) You gotta feel (Ohh Ohh)
You gotta fight (Ohh ohh)
If you wanna live run through the wildfire
(Oh you gotta feel) oh ohh (you gotta fight)
Run through the wildfire (if you wanna live)
Mmm Run through the wildfire
Run through the wildfire
Mmm Run through the wildfire
Mmm

You wanna heal
Run through the wildfire
