English
Lying down on the floor Late night and you don't know, don't know Don't know what to do-o Hard to tell what's wrong, what's right If yes or no, don't know Don't know what to do-o

The storm hits hard and you're losing the way Just take a chance and dance in the rain 'Cuz you got the key, never throw it away Don't forget, don't forget what I said

Get out of your head! Life is only what you make it You're gonna be okay

So go ahead and do it, do it If you want it let's get to it! Everybody's gonna know your name

Cuz sparks light the flame Turn the dark of the night into day (Don't stop, don't stop Just go your own way!!) So don't be afraid Trust your heart, keep your head in the game (Keep up, keep up And never be afraid!!)

Gotta make it hot like a volcano Strike a match and burn it up Kick your feet against the table To the beat of your own drum Sparks light the flame, so don't wait Start a fire today (Don't stop, don't stop Just go your own way!!)

We ain't looking back Take the fast lane now In the driver's seat strapped They just gasp out loud We're going so fast that it shouldn't be allowed That's how we like it You heard what I said

Get out of your head! Life is only what you make it You're gonna be okay (yeah) So take a step and move it, move it 'Less you try you won't get through it Everybody's gonna know your name!!!

Cuz sparks light the flame Turn the dark of the night into day (Don't stop, don't stop Just go your own way!!) So don't be afraid Trust your heart, keep your head in the game (Keep up, keep up And never be afraid!!)

Let go of the past tonight Choose the future only you define Even when the flames burn too bright, you're alive From the ashes you rise

Cuz sparks light the flame Turn the dark of the night into day (Don't stop, don't stop Just go your own way!!) So don't be afraid Trust your heart, keep your head in the game (Keep up, keep up And never be afraid!!)

Gotta make it hot like a volcano Strike a match and burn it up Kick your feet against the table To the beat of your own drum Sparks light the flame, so don't wait Start a fire today (Don't stop, don't stop Just go your own way!!) (Ah yeah)
