h e a t Lyrics

How true is a love never put to the wire

How sure is a faith never proved

Don't challenge yourself, it could cost your desires

Without heat what is there left to do

When is it enough? When is it too much

I've been focused on fire, not truth

I keep pushing the edges to see what remains steady

And I'm finding that I'm breaking through

I don't mean to lose you, but this whole thing

Seems to be hanging on by a thread

People wishing they were dead and their dreams come true

I tried to hold together nicely, but they sold me very tightly

Our ideas of wrong and right we don't get to choose

Why is it more fun on the way down

I've been hoping time finds a way

To temper all of these flames

Every year I'm gaining heat

I thought by now the fire would fade

And something better'd take its place

Do you feel the same

What good is a judge who has never been fired

How helpful is their point of view

I know we can't help how we come hardwired

But I don't think your ending's in tune

Are we there yet? How much farther to go

Been focused on landing, not flight

I'm still jumping from ledges, looking down to the next one

And it's only proven I'm starting to confuse you

Cause I barely remember half the things that I've said

I lose focus in my head, there's no hope for truth

I'd rather give my life to moments than to argue about who owns it

If we're wires and components, it won't hurt while burning us down

I've been hoping time finds a way

To temper all of these flames

Every year I'm gaining heat

I thought by now the fire would fade

And something better'd take its place

Do you feel the same

Do you feel the same
