  1. New Fire

Written & Performed by Derek Virgo

Lyrics

i come by it honestly
but these dark roads are haunting me
and i ain’t where i wanna be
but i come by it honestly

you know it came on unexpectedly-
then got the very best of me
it hurt in my own chest to breathe.
those nerves just kept testing me

and now it shows up so easily.
i swear it gets every piece of me
pray for a day it’ll cease to be
but it keeps showing up, so easily

so i was giving up- and i’d had enough. i’d let it win.
i was so tired of acting tough- it was time to pack it in.


and then it came in so quietly
sat right down inside of me
i stopped caring who i was trying to be
and suffering silently

it was my patience reminding me
the stark contrast- the irony…
said its gift- that i’ll find and see
some way to light this new fire in me

this new fire in me.
