Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I used to be a fortress that smoldered with hate
You plied me with kindness, marched through my gates
Then a feeling of hope started to shine through
All the cracks that I used to blame on you
And replaced them with one burning truth
Now I burn for you
[Instrumental]
Now I am a searcher, trying to reclaim
That part of myself, as if it could change
What I hid from myself, hurt me and hurt you
A spell of protection that split us in two
Now all that's replaced with one burning truth
I burn for you
[Instrumental]
A flicker of flame started to poke through
All the cracks that I used to blame on you
It illuminates, becomes something new
The fire starts covering you too
I burn for you, I burn for you
I am a searcher, I search for you
