Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Calling, calling
The sun is burning black
Calling, calling
It's beating on my back
With a fire
With a fire
[Verse 2]
Calling, calling
The moon is running red
Calling, calling
It's pulling me instead
With a fire
Fire
[Chorus]
But there's a fire inside
And I'm falling over
There's a fire in me
When I call out
I built a fire
I'm going home
[Verse 3]
Calling, calling
The stars are falling down
Calling, calling
They knock me to the ground
With a fire
Fire
[Chorus]
But there's a fire inside
And I'm falling over
There's a fire in me
When I call out
There's a fire inside
When I'm falling over
I built a fire
I'm going home
[Outro]
Calling, calling
Calling, calling
Calling, calling
