Firewalker

Liz Phair · Liz Phair [2003]

My hopes are like embers lying around inside a fire bed

And your mind is a firewalker

It steps on them like they are dead



But I can grow

Inspite of all you know

You might not recognize me tomorrow

Yes, I can change

Inspite of all they say

Become something strange and beautiful

Like JOY, Like JOY



Me, I'm like a wild flame that catches on whatevers near

But your mind is a firewalker

It sets its course and never veers



But I can grow

Inspite of all you know

You might not recognize me tomorrow

Yes, I can change

Inspite of all they say

Become something strange and beautiful

Like JOY, Like JOY



Take offers from every side and give my attentions about anywhere

Well do I recognize my actions

I look like I'm so unaware

Like I don't care



But I can grow

Inspite of all you know

You might not recognize me tomorrow

Yes, I can change

Inspite of all they say

Become something strange and beautiful

Like JOY, Like JOY
