keith hendrickson - fire starter

forever young in my heart and always numb in my brain
im always wearing youth on my sleeve
hoping 1 day i can get this numbness and strain to leave
as never ending passion burns throughout my soul
the darkness above begins to take its toll
never ending rains
loneliness and pain
start to seap into my veins
my blood turns black and so with it my heart
HOPELESNESS AND SHAME! ! !
and now its too late in the game to head back to start
the fire is dim
darkness settles within
BUT WAIT! !
this fire can not be extinguised without a fight/
this happiness and desire will not be relinquised so i reach for the light
im tired of acting shameless
and walking aimless through the night
do i have what it takes for this fire to re-ignite? ? ? ? ?
