Lyrics Holding Back the Fire - Michael Schulte

Holding Back the Fire

Come on and open this door
I know that you’re craving for more
So why’d you think you and your heart will just fall apart by opening this door
Your longing is burning a hole
You can hear the call in your soul
And it’s calling 'cause out of sight is not out of mind
And flames are still alive, somewhere deep inside
You make the days feel so cold and so lonely
Though the sun’s rising right in your heart
You’re holding back the fire
Holding back yourself
Holding back your life
While you’re drowning, drowning yourself
You need to get rid of the fears
Stop doubt and then burst into tears
'Cause there’s no reason to crawl, stay on the ground
So raise and face the fears
Get up and take these steps
You make the days feel so cold and so lonely
Though the sun’s rising right in your heart
You’re holding back the fire
Holding back yourself
Holding back your life
While you’re drowning, drowning
It’s not that you don’t know what to do
It’s not that your heart feels lost or slow
It’s not that you don’t know what to do
It’s not that your heart feels lost or slow
You make the days feel so cold and so lonely
Though the sun’s rising right in your heart
You’re holding back the fire
Holding back yourself
Holding back your life
While you’re drowning, drowning yourself
