Wage war on your preconceptions Of my exception to come What you rely on to give purpose to you’re lifelong dreams Of being what you’ll never become Cause you gotta give More than you’ve got to give To watch it all fall As I watch it fall away from me Like a house on fire And all I am turn to all I can be Like a house on fire Fall back on the same excuses That you’ve been using for years The only person that you’re holding back’s The only one that needed to hear all along Cause you gotta give More than you’ve got to give To watch it all fall As I watch it fall away from me Like a house on fire And all I am turn to all I can be Like a house on fire
