I am the fire, self-combustion from my soul
I am the fuel, concrete walls confine, control
But I'll grow until I burn a hole
Hey, hey, I’m gonna get out
Hey, hey, I’m gonna win
Hey, hey, I’m gonna burn it down like
I’ve never seen
I am the coal, broke, lit and moving me
I am the torch that’s bringing light to all I’ve been
But I’ll grow until I make a hole
Hey, hey, I’m gonna get out
Hey, hey, I’m gonna win
Hey, hey, I’m gonna burn it down like
I’ve never seen
I can see a light coming through the ceiling
I can see a star swinging in the sky
I can see a crack and so I get that feeling
That I could be the sun brighter than the star
Hey, hey, I’m gonna get out
Hey, hey, I’m gonna win
Hey, hey, I’m gonna burn it down like
I’ve never seen
