Everyone says that I'll get it when I'm older
Once I've been around the block I'll understand
They don't know I'm behind the door listening
Piece by piece, becoming who I am

All my life I've been waiting
To light that night that won't go fading
I don't wanna have to think about
How I'm ever gonna put it out
I wanna, wanna start a little fire
I wanna, wanna start a little fire

I'm not afraid to get back up and try again
You told me that's the only way I'll learn
And I'm aware that heartbreak is a consequence
Ready or not, it's time to take my turn

All my life I've been waiting
To light that night that won't go fading
I don't wanna have to think about
How I'm ever gonna put it out
I wanna, wanna start a little fire
I wanna, wanna start a little fire

Let it burn so high that it blows my mind
Let it fill up the sky, it's mine, all mine

All my life I've been waiting
To light that night that won't go fading
I don't wanna have to think about
How I'm ever gonna put it out
I wanna, wanna start a little fire
I wanna, wanna start a little fire
