I strike the match again, all I wanted was a friend
Now I'm stuck here in this cycle of sin
I love this life that I have made
Is it worth the price I'll have to pay
Now this spark is becoming a flame

Can you hear my cry?
I just wanna feel alive
All these selfish desires
Have got me playing with fire
Now the sting is reoccurring
But your love for me is burning
Brighter than the stars
You take my sin and wear my scars

Stand alone with bridges burned
Never knowing how much it hurts
To know that death is all I deserve
These ashes tell of all I've lost
I'm breaking down here at the cross
I need your help, Jesus

Can you hear my cry?
I just wanna feel alive
All these selfish desires
Have got me playing with fire
Now the sting is reoccurring
But your love for me is burning
Brighter than the stars
You take my sin and wear my scars

Through your name, I'll fight the flames
Of passions clashing with your heart
Your saving grace is my escape
You call through the void as I run to your voice
I hear you say

I can hear your cry
I will bring you to life
Give me your selfish desires
And I'll drown out the fire
While my grace is recurring
Know my love for you keeps burning
Brighter than the stars

Can you hear my cry?
I just wanna feel alive
All these selfish desires
Have got me playing with fire
Now the sting is reoccurring
But your love for me is burning
Brighter than the stars
You take my sin
And wear my scars
