[Verse 1]

My opinion could change today

I'm responsible anyway

For second to third hand information

That complicates the complication


[Verse 2]

And I don't think before I speak

And I don't know how far my words reach

So wrong nearly every time

That I'm sorry I speak my mind

If what I said was unkind


[Chorus]

And now it feels like I'm on fire

And it's burning the world through

But don't hold it against me

'Cause I know you're lying too


[Verse 3]

Is there any need for apology?

There's no reason to believe me

Judgments born in my jealous mind

Creeping inside, outside


[Verse 4]

Connections I've made never follow through

And sooner or later disappoint you

Or cross you twice when your back is turned

That's how I've learned

That someone has got to be burned


[Chorus]

And now it feels like I'm on fire

These words are not the truth

But don't hold it against me

'Cause I know you're lying too


[Chorus]

Feels like I'm on fire

And it's burning the world through

But don't let me fall

Without someone to hold on to


[Refrain]

Someone to hold on to

Someone to hold on to
