On Fire (demo) – song – NielsVanRuller.com

Here’s a song I wrote. Normally I don’t finish songs, I guess due to self-defeating perfectionism. This song is about letting go of self-defeating perfectionism. It’s imperfect in many ways.

Lyrics:

I need to relocate

Lose my keen eye for stains

Cause really I just wanna go

I hope it’s not too late

Took me years to explain

Now don’t say I told you so

Gotta let it go

Behold the coming of the day

(Clean your doorstep)

I’m lost but I will find a way

(Make your heart sing)

Say that I’m wanted and I will come running through rain

On fire, on fire

I hope you’ve come to see

You’re not my enemy

I believe what I believe when I want now

I hope you’ll understand

You don’t know half the plan

And you’ll see what you need to see somehow

Oh what you do to me

It’s alright

Oh gotta let it go
