Fireproof

Grief's a silent flame burning slowly
On the bedding of the wounded heart
Feeding on regrets, reminiscing
On the choices we relive again
If you let it grow into fire
It will burn into your new clean life
Unforgiven words, unconfessed lies
They will burn you down, they'll burn you down
I am throwing stones to the water
Watching circles rush to hit the shore
This is how the pain takes you over
Waves come rushing in, a silent storm
Either burned or drowned can the heart be
There's a force that calms the flame and flood
Closer to the heart than the scars cause
It's in the blood, it's in our blood
Take the sword he gave you
And blow away this flame
What was unforgiven
No longer holds the blame
Grief's the void of darkness
But you belong to light
The pain is making pain proof
The surface of your heart
Take the sword he gave you
And blow away this flame
What was unforgiven
No longer holds the blame
Scars are never permanent
No home is ever gone
If healing's from the inside
The weak becomes the strong
Take the sword he gave you
And blow away this flame
What was unforgiven
No longer holds the blame
Scars are never permanent
No home is ever gone
If healing's from the inside
The weak becomes the strong
