Words & Fire

Words & Fire - Sam Roberts

Written by：Sam Roberts

These words don't come easy

They spit from my lips

Then we never had it easy

It slipped from our fingertips

When we met you laughed at me

And stole my last cigarette

Said you wanted to share a past with me

Tomorrow's the day to forget

And you said

Just give me a reason to carry on

To carry on

Just give me a reason to carry on

To carry on

Now I've come unhinged

I'm a door in a frame

Well I'm never quite closed

But I ain't open to change

So my knuckles are bruised

From knocking on wood

It's a trick that I've used

Perhaps more than I should

And I said

Just give me a reason to carry on

To carry on

Just give me a reason to carry on

To carry on

'Cause a heart is just a heart

It can break and fall apart

It can bleed and stop and start

'Cause a heart is just a heart

Mix your words with fire

I'll let them burn me down

Let them ring in the air

Like the bells of an old mining town

Just give me a reason to carry on

To carry on

Just give me a reason to carry on

To carry on

Just give me a reason to carry on

To carry on

Just give me a reason to carry on

To carry on

Just give me a reason to carry on

To carry on

Just give me a reason to carry on

To carry on

Just give me a reason to carry on

To carry on

I just want a reason to carry on

To carry on
