Lyrics
Fireproof
Pours another cup of coffee
Served with sugar and a smile
Gotta hurry up to be on time,
Bathed in her eyes a while
Always been afraid that she’d lose him,
Today the toast burned black
Hiding a tear, She kissed him good-bye,
She knew he wouldn’t come back
The morning sun’s a greeting,
Like the twilight serves the sky
No clouds cut across the deep, bright blue,
My mind’s a shadow flying
Mirrors explode and heaven breaks,
Nothing seems to fit
A deadly silence falls,
She knew he wouldn’t come back
She knew he wouldn’t come back
Chorus
Don´t be afraid he always told her
But his words failed to soothe
“No heat can do me harm or hurt me
Cause I’m fireproof
Fireproof”
Pours herself across the floor,
holds up his picture with a smile
Her fingers tremble, tears on his badge,
Bathes in his eyes for what feels
Like an eternity
She knew he wouldn’t come back
She knew he wouldn’t come back
Chorus

Always been afraid that she’d lose him,

Hiding a tear, She kissed him good-bye,
She knew he wouldn’t come back
The morning sun’s a greeting,
Like the twilight serves the sky
No clouds cut across the deep, bright blue,
My mind’s a shadow flying
Mirrors explode and heaven breaks,
Nothing seems to fit
A deadly silence falls,
She knew he wouldn’t come back
She knew he wouldn’t come back

Don´t be afraid he always told her
But his words failed to soothe
“No heat can do me harm or hurt me

Her fingers tremble, tears on his badge,
Bathes in his eyes for what feels
Like an eternity
She knew he wouldn’t come back
She knew he wouldn’t come back

For those of you keeping score at home I used a Guild D-25M acoustic guitar on Fireproof. I forgot to mention it above.
