The Flaming Lips

The Flaming Lips are an American rock band, formed in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma in 1983. Instrumentally, their sound contains lush, multi-layered, psychedelic rock arrangements, but lyrically their compositions show elements of space rock, including unusual song and album titles—such as "What Is the Light? (An Untested Hypothesis Suggesting That the Chemical [In Our Brains] by Which We Are Able to Experience the Sensation of Being in Love Is the Same Chemical That Caused the "Big Bang" That Was the Birth of the Accelerating Universe)".

 Struggling with On Fire? Become a better singer in 30 days with these videos!

My opinion could change today, 
but I'm responsible anyway
For second or third hand information
That complicates the complication
And I don't think before I speak
And I don't know how far my words reach
So wrong nearly every time,
 that I'm sorry I speak my mind
If what I said was unkind

Now it feels like I'm on fire
It's burning the world through
But don't hold it against me, 
‘cuz I know you're lying, too

Is there any need for apology? 
There's no reason to believe me
Judgments born in my jealous mind, 
creeping inside outside
Connections I've made never follow through
And sooner or later disappoint you
Or cross you twice when your back is turned, that's how I've learned
That someone has got to be burned

Now it feels like I'm on fire, 
these words are not the truth
But don't hold it against me, 
‘cuz I know you're lying, too

Feels like I'm on fire, 
it's burning the world through
Don't let me fall without someone to hold on to
Someone to hold to, someone to hold on to
