Lyrics

[Verse 1] We call them cool Those hearts that have no scars to show The ones that never do let go And risk the tables being turned [Verse 2] We call them fools Who have to dance within the flame Who chance the sorrow and the shame That always comes with getting burned [Pre-Chorus] But you've got to be tough when consumed by desire 'Cause it's not enough just to stand outside the fire [Verse 3] We call them strong Those who can face this world alone Who seem to get by on their own Those who will never take the fall [Verse 4] We call them weak Who are unable to resist The slightest chance love might exist And for that forsake it all [Pre-Chorus] They're so hell-bent on giving, walking a wire Convinced it's not living if you stand outside the fire [Chorus] Standing outside the fire Standing outside the fire Life is not tried, it is merely survived If you're standing outside the fire [Bridge] There's this love that is burning, deep in my soul Constantly yearning to get out of control Wanting to fly higher and higher I can't abide standing outside the fire [Chorus] Standing outside the fire Standing outside the fire Life is not tried, it is merely survived If you're standing outside the fire [Chorus] Standing outside the fire Standing outside the fire Life is not tried, it is merely survived If you're standing outside the fire [Chorus] Standing outside the fire Standing outside the fire Life is not tried, it is merely survived If you're standing outside the fire
