Holding Back the Fire - Michael Schulte

Come on and open this door

I know that you’re craving for more

So why’d you think you and your heart will just fall apart by opening this door

Your longing is burning a hole

You can hear the call in your soul

And it’s calling 'cause out of sight is not out of mind

And flames are still alive, somewhere deep inside

You make the days feel so cold and so lonely

Though the sun’s rising right in your heart

You’re holding back the fire

Holding back yourself

Holding back your life

While you’re drowning, drowning yourself

You need to get rid of the fears

Stop doubt and then burst into tears

'Cause there’s no reason to crawl, stay on the ground

So raise and face the fears

Get up and take these steps

You make the days feel so cold and so lonely

Though the sun’s rising right in your heart

You’re holding back the fire

Holding back yourself

Holding back your life

While you’re drowning, drowning

It’s not that you don’t know what to do

It’s not that your heart feels lost or slow

It’s not that you don’t know what to do

It’s not that your heart feels lost or slow

You make the days feel so cold and so lonely

Though the sun’s rising right in your heart

You’re holding back the fire

Holding back yourself

Holding back your life

While you’re drowning, drowning yourself
