lyrics

Your heart is a bright flame,
A beacon in the soul of the night,
But it burns too hot
Burns them bridges you've crossed
And though it doesnt feel right
its not for naught
Look down, turn around,
But you know there's no going back
You've shone too bright
But know that who you answer to
Is the person starring back at you
in the mirror's light

So don't get too self-conscious,
You should know that You're doing more good than bad,
Not to make you get all self-righteous
But you should know
You're more than just a passing fad
An the heat of your bright flame
Warms my life

Time is short and we cannot afford to be
Second guessing our every move
The hazy days and wandering have
Come to an end
And we!re better off, ya we're better off

So don't get too self-conscious,
You should know that You're doing more good than bad,
Not to make you get all self-righteous
But you should know
You're more than just a passing fad
An the heat of your bright flame
Warms my life

She's out on the water
She holds out her bright flame
To light the way for her brothers
But then she loses herself in the eyes
Of another
It was an honest mistake, but
She's caught in the wake
And it's bringing her down
