Will probably rerecord the lead with wah later on. Seems muddled on the track...

lyrics

It’s a sad state when you don’t know
What country you’re in.
It’s a tiny room when you
Can’t find the door.
It’s a long race when you can’t
Find the starting line.
It’s a bad day that you’ve been thru before.

Interlude
What do think it is I’m talking about?
What do you think is going thru my mind?
Is it us (the fire) that we can’t seem to live without?
Is it something in our hearts that we can’t find?

Bridge
This is what it feels like when I’m with you.
This is what it feels like when you’re with me.
This is what it feels like.
This is what it feels like.
This is how it feels.

It’s a long road without any signs.
It’s a locked door and you can’t find the key.
It’s a countdown to the end, without any time.
It’s a mirror with no reflection of me.

Interlude
What do think it is I’m talking about?
What do you think is going thru my mind?
Is it us (the fire) that we can’t seem to live without?
Is it something in our hearts that we can’t find?

Bridge
This is what it feels like when I’m with you.
This is what it feels like when you’re with me.
This is what it feels like.
This is what it feels like.
This is how it feels.
