	"You're On Fire" is one of our favorite songs, both recorded and in our live show. Starting from a soft guitar and vocal introduction, it quickly builds up to a thunderous chorus, with singer Teresa Kelly reminiscing about past wild times with a friend. The song ends with a view to the future: "What am I supposed to do, tomorrow's getting closer/If I turn into you, I'll be surprised."

	Story Behind the Song This is an example of how we tweak and tweak something until it comes out right -- the song was written in D but then raised a half-step to Eb to strain Teresa's voice a touch, giving it that extra edge. And Edan re-arranged Chad's guitar parts in the studio, giving them more of a jangly feel and letting the bass take more of the harmonic movement. Lyrics You were uptight, you were unwound, I wasn't the same Now you can ignite from the ground a steady flame You are the kindling, you're the friction, I remain You think I'm kidding, but you changed while I'm the same Tick tock, how time has passed Remembering when we were trashed 'Til someone threw us out You were so embarrassed I said that I couldn't care less I thought that was what life's all about Now you're on fire You were so fazed by any word, I had no fear Now you set ablaze if disturbed by a tear You are so red, you're a warmer orange shade You're in my head wonder should I do the same Tick tock, how time can fly Remembering how we would try to Throw the whole world off You were so ashamed I said do not be afraid But you were not scared, just had enough Now you're on fire I'm looking in the mirror, tomorrow's getting nearer I see the whites of my own eyes What am I supposed to do, tomorrow's getting closer If I turn into you, I'll be surprised You're on fire, and I wanna put you out
