lyrics

Chorus:
That flame/that little sacred flame has gone out in me x3

How to reclaim it/reclaim my life
poetry awakened a fire in me
that is struggling to stay warm/and red and yellow/and orange and gold
not blue
Oh what am I to do/oh what am i to do/tell me what am i to do without

chorus

how to reclaim it/reclaim my life
melody awakened a child in me/that is struggling to stay warm
and reaching out its tiny arms for more
I want more of that/give me more of that/I want more of that what it is you got

Oh this mountain is so steep/and it won't stop till I'm gone
it's so easy to lie down/when that flame is nearly all gone x2

chorus

How to reclaim it/reclaim my light
empathy awakened a flood in me/that is pouring out the door
and now onto the street/now it's shining there for all to see
I'm so sorry/I'm so sorry/you're so sorry/you're so sorry/
Don't apologize/woman stand up and defend your rights

Like a proud and hungry tiger/you have to stand up to survive
I find it all falls away/every time i look up at the stars x2
