Standard (EADGBE)

I recall the day when I was in thee

 Thee womb, I could hear you so soon

 I will see your face

I liked to play alone

 Never ever all alone

My first day to school was so exciting

 Although they all went on and on

 Still rest my head for my wrongs

High school days are dark

 So light the flame

Walking down those halls

 So light the flame

Learning who I'm not

 So light the flame

No idea of who I'm to be

My leash was long and so you let me run on

 Like all good moms and dads must do

 Guess I'll have to do it too

 And while I'm cookin' down

 So light the flame

My precious torch burns on and on

Set a flame to the daily paper

 'Cause there is just no justice here

 And who really cares

Skipping through your fire

 The first flame

Light dispelling dark

Returning to my roots

 Our first flame

Of exactly who

Getting to that place

 My first flame

Peace runs through my days

Finally crawling through

 The first flame

 With my source, my shield, my you
