New Fire

Our families are a weird machine

there’s too many parts to tape back together

before you turn 18

you shake cause you’re not ready

but fear comes back for more

be a light in their darkness

be a glow on the shore

he’ll turn it around

New fire lit in you

a new fire circles this room

may you never be afraid of your faith in

New fire lit in you

a new fire circles this room

may you never be afraid of your father

Families are a precious thing

there’s too many hearts to break all at once

before you turn 23

you scream cause you weren’t honest

and you left cause you were wrong

I pray for grace in your decisions

and hope you won’t be gone too long

New fire lit in you

a new fire circles this room

may you never be afraid of your faith in

New fire lit in you

a new fire circles this room

may you never be afraid of your father…

take take that knife from your neck…
