kansas - inside of me lyrics

(steve morse / steve walsh)
the fire's inside me - the bridges burn
love is the lesson but love never learns
and if it's all up to me, in a matter of time
all theses memories will return

try to run a little faster - try to reach for the sky
try to come a little closer; even if i lose, i gotta try

inside of me, is a man that i knew
who could rattle these chains - who could shake these cages
inside of you, is a dream that i see
and the echoes of voices are calling
inside of me - inside of me

i've captured the nightmares that burst in your bed
i've run with the horses inside your head
but as i turned to walk away, i never heard you say
"we are hanging by a thread!"

so i skated in circles over cracks in the ice
and i stand in the shadows; now my heart must pay the price

inside of me, is a man that i knew
who could rattle these chains - who could shake these cages
inside of you, is a dream that i see
and the echoes of voices are calling
inside of me - inside of me
