I Have Been a Fire

I have been a fire
I have been a fire
Burning from below
Hot enough to know
I have been a fire

You were just a flower
Always just a flower
Tender like a rose
With charred and blackened toes

And still you call me
Still adore me
Still you call me love, love love.
Still you call me love, you call me love.

I have been a fire
I have been a fire
Silently I burn
Far too proud to learn
I have been a fire

You became the water
You became the water
Washed me 'til I drowned
Picked me from the ground
You became the water.
