Hiding from starlight
Swatting at fireflies
Can't face the sunrise
Or look into your eyes (look into your eyes)
Turning down cigarettes
Blowing out candlesticks (oh)
I have been burned too many times
Now I'm gun-shy (now I'm gun-shy)

I know who you are, I've been here before
Stay away, 'cause I don't wanna hurt anymore
I'm not afraid to be lonely, not scared of the dark
But I'm so afraid of fire that I'm running from sparks

I'm so afraid of fire that I'm running from sparks
So afraid of love, I can't open my heart
Not afraid to be lonely, not scared of the dark
But I'm so afraid of fire that I'm running from, running from sparks

When I see lightning (oh)
I feel myself dying (oh)
I have been burned too many times
Now I'm paralyzed

I know who you are, I've been here before
Stay away 'cause I don't wanna hurt anymore
I'm not afraid to be lonely, not scared of the dark
But I'm so afraid of fire that I'm running from sparks

I'm so afraid of fire that I'm running from sparks
So afraid of love, I can't open my heart
Not afraid to be lonely, not scared of the dark
But I'm so afraid of fire that I'm running from, running from sparks

(Lightning, lightning)
So afraid of fire that I'm running from, running from sparks
(Lightning, lightning)
So afraid of fire that I'm running from, running from sparks
