Just Like Fire Would Lyrics

[Verse 1]
One night in a motel room
Eyes cast like steel
I drank the wine that they left on my table
I knew the morning was too far

[Verse 2]
I smoked my last cigarette
I stay only to defy
The night was dark and the land was cold
It's frozen right to the bone

[Chorus]
Just like fire would, I burn up
Just like fire would
Just like fire would, I burn up

[Verse 3]
500 miles I've gone today
Tomorrow's 500 more
Outside my window the world passes by, it's
Stranger than a dream

[Chorus]
Just like fire would, I burn up
Just like fire would
Just like fire would, I burn up

[Verse 4]
I go to work and I earn my pay, Lord
My sweat it falls to the ground
I see you now but we may never meet again child
The ice is hanging on the door

[Verse 1]
One night in a motel room
Eyes cast like steel
I drank the wine that they left on my table
I knew the morning was too far

[Chorus][x2]
Just like fire would, I burn up
Just like fire would
Just like fire would, I burn up
Just like fire would, I burn up
Just like fire would
Just like fire would, I burn up

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
