Blowing Fire - The Joy Formidable

Been blowing fire

For much too long

Been wondering why

I got involved

I took a walk

In the dead of night

I wished it deep

But you were right

Now everyone is regret and love

A lot of them

Don’t feel anything at all

It’s coming to a head

Stop moving around

Been blowing fire for much too long

And getting nothing

Now, what gives in?

There’s more of them

But they don’t feel the nightly dread

A mother high

A face of questions

That wasted look, that’s your reflection

Been blowing fire for much too long

And getting nothing

And now, it races back to me

I wanted you to know

(There's every chance for you to see)

Not every river overflows

All their cries, the same to you

And they’re tired, the same as you

All the fears, the same as you

All their minds made up like you

Turning hot or cold

We left the same

Told myself it’s me who’s changed

Can I let it all pour inside, it took my walls

But it left my heart behind

Been blowing fire for much too long and getting nothing

How long 'til you catch on
