Fire, Oh Fire!


Fire, oh fire. How you always find a way to burn...

Why don’t your broken flames ever disappear?
When no one’s looking, you turn to me and whisper in my ear..
As your power hits me straight upon my face,
I open my thoughts and gather some strength in haste..

Why must I learn to put up with them all?
When all that I’ve trained to do is stand up when I fall??
Why must I learn to prepare for my fights?
Who gave them power to take away all my rights?
Why must I bow upon them on their order and their needs?
When all I can see is a fire spreading, yes - indeed…

Fire, oh fire. How you always find a way to burn...
Is there no drug to wash away your wounds?
You’ve spread too fast, and it’s happened too soon..
You’ve lost your control, you’ve ignited them all..
There isn’t any way to save those lives that were lost..

Why must I pray to the lord that listens no more?
Why have I a mind that is rotten with thought?
What knows a man, when life takes his love away?
If nothing lasts forever, why doesn’t my heart feel the same way?

Fire, oh fire. How you always find a way to burn...
Rolling through the grassland and through towns that haven’t even learned..
Why fate brought that upon their ungrateful lives,
They’d never imagined your flames that could rise up so high..

Fire, oh fire. How you always find a way to burn...
You always find a way to corrupt my returns..
You’ve taken over my mind, but I won’t be leaving without a fight..
The next time we meet, it’d be you on the other side..
