It was another rainy day
Where I finally met my fate and my body started to shake
And I got out of the state of mind, I was in
I got up and picked up the pieces, all on my own
I never thought I could get by, in the life I was living

It speeds up my heart rate
Standing up, in front of the crowd
Oh, how they are loud
All of the pressure went away
When the guitar that hung from my neck began to play.
The music filled the room, the kids began to sway.
To the rhythm and the beat
To the sound of the drums pounding throughout the room

I watched the rain beat against the window, and the wind rustle the leaves of the trees
Casting a shadow across the crackling sidewalk
The stairs creak when you walk up them

Its like a melody of the fire, put out with the falling snow
It'll burn brighter than you'll ever know
Get up on the stage, sing your heart out to the world
The crowd feels the pain in your words and sings right back to you

You couldn't stay away from the storm, you let it consume your life
Don't believe them, they're a failure by design
They come from the place where the sun don't shine
The melody of the fire burns bright, like the stars in the endless space

The melody of the fire, wind, rain, and snow
It's the heart of the song, the birth of a band
Now shut up and take my hand
We'll start this adventure together, along with our friends
Live a life we always wanted to live
We said we wouldn't give up and we didn't give up
Now we sing the melody of the fire out to you
