On Fire Lyrics


I tell you where you need to go
Tell you when you'll need to leave
I tell you what you need to know
Tell you who you need to beBut everything inside you knows
There's more than what you've heard
There's so much more than empty conversations
Filled with empty wordsAnd you're on fire when he's near you
You're on fire when he speaks
You're on fire burning at these mysteriesGive me one more time around
Give me one more chance to see, yeah
Give me everything you are
Give me one more chance to be near you, awh, ayhWhat everything inside me looks like
Everything I hate
You are the hope I have for change
You are the only chance I'll takeWhen I'm on fire when you're near me
And I'm on fire when you speak
And I'm on fire burning at these
Mysteries, mysteries, mysteriesYou're on fire

You're on fire
You're on fireI'm standing on the edge of me
I'm standing on the edge of me
I'm standing on the edge of me
I'm standing on the edge of meI'm standing on the edge
Of everything I've never been before
And I've been standing on the edge of me
I'm standing on the edgeAnd I'm on fire when you're near you
And I'm on fire when you speak
Yeah, I'm on fire burning at these mysteriesThese mysteries
These mysteries
Yeah, your mystery
Yeah, your mystery

Switchfoot is a grammy-winning alternative rock band from San Diego, California, United States. The band was formed in 1996 with the brothers Jon Foreman (lead singer/guitarist) and Tim Foreman (bass). Long-time friend Chad Butler (drums) joined soon after. Eventually the band evolved to what it is today with the addition of members Jerome Fontamillas (key/guitar/electronics - formerly of Mortal and Fold Zandura) and Drew Shirley (guitar - formerly of All Together Separate).

Although the band started out playing at Christian music festivals, they shun the label of "Christian rock," with singer and guitarist Jon Foreman saying, "For us, it's a faith, not a genre. We've always been very open and honest about where the songs are coming from. For us, these songs are for everyone. Calling us `Christian rock' tends to be a box that closes some people out and excludes them. And that's not what we're trying to do. Music has always opened my mind -- and that's what we want." They started out on Charlie Peacock's label "re:think" and spent several years appearing at Christian festivals and enjoying Christian radio hits. Most of their early tours were with Christian bands and both of the band's new members were borrowed from Christian bands.

Switchfoot did not see success outside of the Christian rock scene until they were featured alongside singer Mandy Moore on the A Walk To Remember Soundtrack. The band's first true commercial success came in 2003 with the release of their fourth major label (and first mainstream label) offering, The Beautiful Letdown. The album went on to sell more than 2 million albums and Switchfoot became the most popular rock band to be associated with Christian music.

They were featured on the British Edition of the Spiderman II soundtrack along with the likes of Taking Back Sunday and Dashboard Confessional to name a few, in 2004 with the song 'Meant To Live'.

In 2005 Switchfoot released "Nothing Is Sound". The album went gold within 3 months and received much critical acclaim.

Switchfoot's highly anticipated album, titled "Oh! Gravity." was released on December 26th, 2006.

On November 10th, 2009, Switchfoot released their first album produced under their own label, lowercase people. "Mess of Me", a single from the album released months before the CD, has enjoy chart-topping radio plays since its release.

In 2010 Switchfoot released their album, "Hello Hurricane".

On September 27th, 2011, to much anticipation and excitement, Switchfoot released their newest album, "Vice Verses".
