The Flame

There was a time I doubted myself in my mind And hid the flame that was burning deep inside Just an average kid, average at sports, and average grades Destined to be good at most but never great Was never quite the norm but tried to keep my collar starched Just what you did when you had nothing better off But that flame cut deep and it burned me to my core First time I touched these strings and walked out on that floor This new road that I've been traveling on Is taking me to higher places than I've ever gone Highway signs are glowing red with sparks Now I'll follow this flame out into the dark Yeah I'll follow my flame out into the dark Well there's no glitz and glamor along the way And this flame only burns bright enough to see today I guess its just another risk ill have to take But I'm risking more not packin up and driving away This new road that I've been traveling on Is taking me to higher places than I've ever gone Highway signs are glowing red with sparks Now I'll follow this flame out into the dark Yeah I'll follow my flame out into the dark This new road that I've been traveling on Is taking me to higher places than I've ever gone Highway signs are glowing red with sparks Now I'll follow this flame out into the dark Yeah I'll follow my flame out into the dark
