Fire/Fear

It's a long way to the other room

While I'm grading papers and tying shoes

You never had much to lose

So I'm blaming you for these hopeless bluesWhat's to say when the kids are gone?

I've made up the beds and been left alone

You look at me, as cold as a stone

There's no way to write what's been done wrongYou left me a fool

So what to do?Hold me down if I'm running off

They say it gets better, baby, soon enough

So I'll shut my mouth and I'll steal my heart

I still feel like a girl, thinking when we started, butI want to feel the fire again, with you or anybody else

I want to feel the fear again, with you or anybody else

So what to do? What to do?
