[Verse 1]
C Am7
'Spread my legacy like wildfire through a forest
C Am7
Curse the beautiful destruction that I feel.'
C Am7
She recites her words like sympathetic treason
C Am7
As she stands atop a mountain made of steel, she says
[Chorus]
F C Am G
"I am anxious. I am scared. I am anything but well prepared
F C Am G
And I know just what I want and what I want right now is this
F C Am G
In my soul there is a fire that this body can't contain
F Am G C
Please don't let me burn away, I am meant for something more"
[Verse 2]
C Am7
Tears run down my face like rivers down a mountain
C Am7
Curse this agonising frailty that I am
C Am7
She is beautiful and I am catastrophic
C Am7
As I reach to her with more than just my hands, I said
[Chorus]
F C Am G
"I am anxious. I am scared. I am anything but well prepared
F C Am G
And I know just what I want and what I want right now is this
F C Am G
In my soul there is a fire that this body can't contain
F Am G C
Please don't let me burn away, I am meant for something more"
[Bridge]
Am G
We all have battles in ourselves. We all fight battles all the time
Am G
We all fight battles in ourselves. We all have battles all the time
[Chorus]
F C Am G
"I am anxious. I am scared. I am anything but well prepared
F C Am G
And I know just what I want and what I want right now is this
F C Am G
In my soul there is a fire that this body can't contain
F Am G
Please don't let me burn away, I am meant for something more"
F C Am G
In my soul there is a fire that this body can't contain
F Am G
Please don't let me burn away, I am meant for something more"
