When I was eighteen everything was alive   Then the planes hit the towers   Then she died, then he died   A part of my disappeared six feet in the ground   Million miles in the sky a fire burns,   A fire burns, a fire burns and it is mine      And I did what I did   What we did to survive   Five whole years of my life I spent mourning you and why?   Girl you're still alive   You're too dead to keep inside   You take the years, you keep it all,   I finally think I might be alright      So let's just let it all go cause nothing can change   And if something is lost then there's something to frame   I just sing what I have   And I got this girl, not yet crushed by the world   I'll count the freckles on her face one, two, three hundred times a day      And sing a new song   Something I'd never hear   It's better love that I found, bigger love that you fear   So deep inside me, hot in this frozen cave   Her fire burns, her fire burns, her fire burns and it is brave      When I was eighteen everything was alive   Then the planes hit the towers   Then she died, then he died   A part of my disappeared six feet in the ground   Million miles in the sky a fire burns,   A fire burns, and I just let it all go      And I won't fear change   And if something is lost then there's something to frame   I'll just sing what I have in the heavens above   In the song in the sky a fire burns,   A fire burns, a fire burns and it's for you
