Lyrics

[Intro]

Hm-hm, hm-hm, mm

Mm, mm-mm, mm

[Verse 1]

Send me the prayer I'm missing

Because I need the sign

And even though I'm listening, mm

It's gonna take awhile

[PreChorus]

Wanna set my soul on fire

Get me out this hole, I'm tired

Wanna set my soul on fire

Get me out this hole, I'm tired

Wanna set my soul on fire

Free me from this world I've found so frail

Wanna set my soul on fire

Free me from this world I've found so frail

Wanna set my soul on fire

Get me out this hole, too tired to stand

Wanna set my

Wanna set my

Wanna set my

Oh-oh, I

[Chorus]

Oh, I've been, oh, I've been unfine

Blunt knives on my side

That is our reality

Holding my breath

I've been dying

Obeying all my life

That is our reality, hmm, hmm

Yeah, yeah

[Verse 2]

Now every line I question

Am I afraid to be

Someone who learned a lesson

Amongst the evergreens?

Mm-mm, oh-oh, oh

[PreChorus]

Wanna set my soul on fire

Free me from this world I've found so frail

Wanna set my soul on fire

Free me from this world I've found so frail

Wanna set my soul on fire

Get me out this hole, too tired to stand

Wanna set my

Wanna set my

Wanna set my

Oh-oh

[Chorus]

I've been, oh, I've been unfine

Blunt knives on my side

That is our reality

Holding my breath

I've been dying

Obeying all my life

That is our reality

[Bridge]

'Cause I, I've lied

I've tried

I've loved

I've lived

I've died

I will survive

I've, I've lied

I've tried

I've loved

I've lived

I've died

I will survive

Oh, baby

Marking my time on

Feeling my own skin crawl

Marking my time on

My own advice is killing me

My own advice is eating me

Now

Send me the prayer I'm missing

Am I amongst the living?

Am I afraid to be?

[Outro]

Wanna set my soul on fire

Get me out this hole, I'm tired
