lyrics

So we thought we could survive
As the wildfire came to claim our countryside
But cracking timber’s choir joined the shouts
Now we can’t touch the handle to get out

And we all have run ourselves ragged trying to survive
And its hard to take a step back and open up our eyes

All this time I thought I had to always win
I never thought that I could simply let ya in
But from our years together I can see
That loving you is living (living) in this heat

So we all will run ourselves ragged trying to survive
And we try to take a step back and open up our eyes
Cause we thought we had to slash and burn just to stay alive
But we see its just a marriage purified by fire
And we all have run ourselves ragged trying to refine
So it’s time to throw our heads back and open up our eyes
Yeah we all have run ourselves ragged trying to survive
And it’s hard to take a step back and open up our eyes
Yeah all have run ourselves ragged trying to survive
