Before I Walk On Fire

Sophie B. Hawkins

I lied


I stole in the name of fear


But I won't be silent here





I don't want somewhere to run to


I don't want somebody I can shake


Lord I want my dignity again


Before I wakl on fire


You gotta look me in the face





I won't flinch


And I won't turn away





I'm sorry


I'm sorry for being scared


But I won't drop you there


Oh darling


Let me show you I love you


Oh world


Let me show you I care





I don't want somewhere to run to


I don't want somebody I can shake


Lord I want my dignity again


Before I wakl on fire


You gotta look me in the face





Give me back my touch


Give me back my feeling


Give me everything


I wanna be your witness


I want you to believe in me
