on fire by switchfoot


LYRICS

They tell you where you need to go
They tell you when you'll need to leave
They tell you what you need to know
They tell you who you need to be

But everything inside you knows
There's more than what you've heard
There's so much more than empty conversations
Filled with empty words

And you're on fire
When He's near you
You're on fire
When He speaks
You're on fire
Burning at these mysteries

Give me one more time around
Give me one more chance to see
Give me everything You are
Give me one more chance to be... (near You)

Cause everything inside me looks like
Everything I hate
You are the hope I have for change
You are the only chance I'll take

When I'm on fire
When You're near me
I'm on fire
When You speak
And I'm on fire
Burning at these mysteries
These mysteries...

I'm standing on the edge of me [x3]
I'm standing on the edge of everything I've never been before.
And i've been standing on the edge of me
Standing on the edge

And I'm on fire
When You're near me
I'm on fire
When You speak
(Yea) I'm on fire
Burning at these mysteries... these mysteries... these mysteries
Ah you're the mystery
You're the mystery

i get strength through jesus. my lord.

[DriftedStar]

That's your perspective.

It is about whatever you think it's about. That's the beauty of Switchfoot's lyrics.

They hold meaning for both believers and non-believers alike.

[Mythinkingbox]

@DriftedStar I understand where you're coming from. Anyone can feel down and listen to this song. It is a great song that can reach out to believers & non-believers. There's no limit. :)

[Protsman12]

@DriftedStar i bet you though if you would ask the members of the band they would tell you that is a way to worship the Lord. Yes, it can apply to others besides God but it is my personal belief that the song was written as praise to God.

[popcornprincess101]

Trust the lord with all your heart, mind, soul, and strength

I -3 god!!!:):):)

@Losersarelovely But Jesus told us in the Bible that we would be persecuted for believing in him. So, let them say what they have to say! My God is more powerful than their words.

[nevershoutnever423]

Switchfoot has a song for everything and anything I'm going through. Definitely my favorite band. Ever.

[Rocketdog731]

@YouDontKnowMe1623 I know, everytime I have a bad day then I listen to Switchfoot and they always make my day a lot better, and I listen to them even on good days, So I am always in a good mood when listening to Switchfoot :)

[YouDontKnowMe1623]

[KoobxwmBelieves]
