[Verse 1]
I’m aGfraid of the space where Cyou suffer
Where you Gsit in the smoke and the Cburn
I can’t hGandle the choke or the Cdanger
Of my own fGoolish, inadequate Cwords
I’ll be right outAmside if you need me
Right ouCtside
[Chorus]
What can I Gbring to your Emfire?
Shall I Csing while the roof is coming Ddown?
Can I Ghold you while the flames grow hEmigher
Shall I Cbrave the heat and come close with you Dnow?
Can I come close nGow?C  
[Verse 2]
So we Gleft you to fight your oCwn battle
And you Gburied your hope with your Cfaith
’Cause you Gheard no song of delCiverance
There on the Gnights that followCed the wake
We never Amthought to go with you
AfCraid to ask
[Chorus]
What can I Gbring to your Emfire?
Shall I Csing while the roof is coming Ddown?
Can I Ghold you while the flames grow hEmigher
Shall I Cbrave the heat and come close with you Dnow?
Can I come close nGow?
[Bridge]
Lay down Emour plans
Lay down the Csure-fire fix
Grief’s gonna Emstay awhile
There is no Ccure for this
We watch for reGturn
We speak what weD’ve heard
We sit toAmgether, iDn the burn

[Chorus]
What can I Gbring to your Emfire?
Shall I Csing while the roof is coming Ddown?
Can I Ghold you while the flames grow hEmigher
Shall I Cbrave the heat and come close with you Dnow?
Can I come close nGow?

I’m afraid of the space where you suffer

Of my own foolish, inadequate words

I’ll be right outside if you need me

Right outside

[Verse 2]

G C

So we left you to fight your own battle

There on the nights that followed the wake

We never thought to go with you

Afraid to ask

What can I bring to your fire?

Lay down the sure-fire fix

Grief’s gonna stay awhile

There is no cure for this

We watch for return

We speak what we’ve heard

Am D

We sit together, in the burn
