lyrics

I'm tired of fighting fires I didn't light
But I'd get bored without the heat of the flames
Turning circles in the orange glow of night
Serving souls that I have given names

I've tumbled through this life
To try and make it mine
Love letters for my family line
Velvet blankets in my hand
Blood red roses, golden sand
I'm doing all a mother can

I've watched for others in the burning dawn
Falling to their knees, praying for rain
It takes a village when the clouds are gone
We'll fight together against the heat of the day

I've tumbled through this life
To try and make it mine
Love letters for my family line
Velvet blankets in my hand
Blood red roses, golden sand
I'm doing all a mother can

I've reconciled that rest may never come
It's a burden I'm blessed to bear
Near the end of a day that's never done
I'm thankful for the fires in my care

I've tumbled through this life
To try and make it mine
Love letters for my family line
Velvet blankets in my hand
Blood red roses, golden sand
I'm doing all a mother can
