[Verse 1]

We call them cool

Those hearts that have no scars to show

The ones that never do let go

And risk the tables being turned

[Verse 2]

We call them fools

Who have to dance within the flame

Who chance the sorrow and the shame

That always comes with getting burned

[Pre-Chorus]

But you've got to be tough when consumed by desire

'Cause it's not enough just to stand outside the fire

[Verse 3]

We call them strong

Those who can face this world alone

Who seem to get by on their own

Those who will never take the fall

[Verse 4]

We call them weak

Who are unable to resist

The slightest chance love might exist

And for that forsake it all

[Pre-Chorus]

They're so hell-bent on giving, walking a wire

Convinced it's not living if you stand outside the fire

[Chorus]

Standing outside the fire

Standing outside the fire

Life is not tried, it is merely survived

If you're standing outside the fire

[Bridge]

There's this love that is burning, deep in my soul

Constantly yearning to get out of control

Wanting to fly higher and higher

I can't abide standing outside the fire

[Chorus]

Standing outside the fire

Standing outside the fire

Life is not tried, it is merely survived

If you're standing outside the fire

[Chorus]

Standing outside the fire

Standing outside the fire

Life is not tried, it is merely survived

If you're standing outside the fire

[Chorus]

Standing outside the fire

Standing outside the fire

Life is not tried, it is merely survived

If you're standing outside the fire
