Well you run, run, run You run But you can only run so far And then you hide, hide, hide You go and hide But you can't hide from yourself And so you fake, fake, fake, fake it Until every time you look into the mirror You just wanna break it And the world keeps turning World keeps turning And every day I'm learning Everyday I'm learning The problem with starting fires You got to keep 'em burning! And now you earn, earn, earn, you go out and earn Go on child you can earn very fast And then you burn, burn, burn, you burn You burn it all and tell the others that you learned And the world keeps turning World keeps turning And every day I'm learning Everyday I'm learning The problem with starting fires You got to keep 'em You got to keep 'em You got to keep 'em You got to keep 'em burning (Just gotta to try, try, try) I don't wanna wait I don't wanna wait I don't wanna wait Cause the weight of my waiting Now I'm gunna be late And the world keeps turning World keeps turning And every day I'm learning everyday I'm learning The problem with starting fires The problem with starting fires You got to keep 'em You got to keep 'em You got to keep 'em burning
