Before I Walk On Fire Lyrics - Sophie B. Hawkins

I lied 

I stole in the name of fear 

But I won't be silent here 

I don't want somewhere to run to 

I don't want somebody I can shake 

Lord I want my dignity again 

Before I walk on fire 

You gotta look me in the face 

I won't flinch 

And I won't turn away 

I'm sorry 

I'm sorry for being scared 

But I won't drop you there 

Oh darling 

Let me show you I love you 

Oh world 

Let me show you I care 

I don't want somewhere to run to 

I don't want somebody I can shake 

Lord I want my dignity again 

Before I walk on fire 

You gotta look me in the face 

Give me back my touch 

Give me back my feeling 

Give me everything 

I wanna be your witness 

I want you to believe in me
