When I try to understand
What I'm for and what I am
I get so bummed out
It's beyond my grasp
But there are things
I use every day
I don't know how they work
Or how they're made
I use them anyway
Without thought and without praise
Oh, fire
You filled my body
I felt you come
I'll feel you go
When you say "It's time"
And when I'm laughing
With all my friends
It's the happiest I ever am
I know they're for me
I know I'm for them
Oh, fire
You're bigger than me
So I will surrender
And I will accept
The way things are
Oh, fire, when you are done with me
There will be ash
And there will be dust
And there will be life
