"Currents (Original Lyrics)" lyrics

Desperation is following me
I try to shake it, but it's always on my heels
And when I try to get away, I'm in slow motion
Caught in the ruts on either side
A straight path becomes a knot I can't unwind

If it is born in flames then we should let it burn
Burn as brightly as we can
And if it's gotta end then let it end in flames
Let it burn all the way down

Hesitation is calling to me
I try to fight it, but it's always in my ear
And its whisper's winding reel on slow currents
Little lies to keep my tied
A straight path becomes a road I cannot find
Just some name I remember

If it is born in flames then we should let it burn
Burn as brightly as we can
And if it's gotta end then let it end in flames
Let it burn all the way down
All the way down

And if the light should fade away
And leave me on a darkened path
I will make some new mistakes
But I am never going back
There's only every each new step for each of us
There's so much left
If it is born in flames then we should let it burn
Burn as brightly as we can
And if it's gotta end then let it end in flames
Let it burn

If it is born in flames then we should let it burn
Burn as brightly as we can
And if it's gotta end then let it end in flames
Let it burn all the way down
