Anne Haigis Dancing In The Fire Lyrics

I think my heart was designed to fade and lose color
                                            To turn inside out and wash in the rain
                                             It loses all perfection in cold water
                                                So the desired look is obtained

                                                 And it rises higher and higher
                                            Like this filthy heat above the city sky
                                       And I feel like I'm going mad dancing in the fire
                                 As if I'm only here to prove there are mountains I could move

                                              So love is spent dancing in the fire
                                            Too high the cost and too quick the pain
                                              And all that's left for the outsider
                                               Is ashes from dancing in the fire

                                            I think my eyes were made for deception
                                      Interpreting lovers will call what we want the truth
                                       With all I have seen burning behind these mirrors
                                          The reflection they see is all that I pursue

                                                 And it rises higher and higher
                                            Like this filthy heat above the city sky
                                       And I feel like I'm going mad dancing in the fire
                                 As if I'm only here to prove there are mountains I could move

                                              So love is spent dancing in the fire
                                            Too high the cost and too quick the pain
                                              And all that's left for the outsider
                                                 Ashes from dancing in the fire

                                                     And voices get louder
                                               And the air's too thick to breathe
                                       Still I lie awake and I wait for the unknown power
                                                    Dying for want of sleep

                                          I think my life line was stolen from a movie
                                        The one where they are trying to solve the crime
                                        But this prisoner is always one step before them
                                        And everyone's running trying to stop me in time

                                             And it keeps rising higher and higher
                                            Like this filthy heat above the city sky
                                       And I feel like I'm going mad dancing in the fire
                                                  As if I'm only here to prove
                                                 There are lovers I could move

                                              Oh love is spent dancing in the fire
                                            Too high the cost and too quick the pain
                                              And all that's left for the outsider
                                                 Ashes from dancing in the fire
