So here we stand
You got caught with love in the hand
Blinded by the sun and the steel
Nothing but the sound of the fear
The blood, sweat and tears

Shake off my past
I knew it but I see it at last
And now there's fire climbing the wall
All I see is the smell of the smoke
The tears that they choke

(If you feel, what I feel)
I never wanted
Truth is a liar
(If you feel, what I feel)
I never need it
This house is on fire
[x2]

Flashes kick in
Altering the day you stepped in
Image of him touching your hand
Thought of it as just innocence
But now it makes sense

You were so free
Never saw that picture with me
Now this fire's climbing the walls
All I see are ashes, the pain
The love lost in vain

(If you feel, what I feel)
I never need it
Truth is a liar
(If you feel, what I feel)
I never need it
This house is on fire
(If you feel, what I feel)
I never wanted
Truth is a liar
(If you feel, what I feel)
I never need it
This house is on fire, fire...

Bury the echoes
Turn it back
Melt all my wishing
For the times we once had
Damage my vision
Set it ablaze
Destroy the hours
Take it a-way...

(If you feel, what I feel)
I never wanted
Truth is a liar
(If you feel, what I feel)
I never need it
This house is on fire
[x2]

(If you feel, what I feel)
This house is on fire
(If you feel, what I feel...)
