In the darkness it finds me
|
the terrible fire
|
it don't matter how much I pray
|
The flames leap and burn me
|
There's nothing I can do
|
To make the fear go away
|
I try to keep moving
|
|
Try not to look back
|
Push really hard on the stone
|
But I walk through the fire alone
|
|
The tree by my window
|
Turns gray in November
|
I watch the leaves as they fall
|
The branches left naked
|
Reach up so proudly
|
I wish to Cod you would call
|
But me I'm the dead one
|
You are the lover
|
Who loved me right down to my bones
|
Now I walk through the fire alone
|
|
The powers that push me
|
They move me they own me
|
They constantly tell me to run
|
I try not to listen
|
I try to fight them
|
But never a battle I've won
|
So let go of lovers
|
I let go of diamonds
|
I've plenty of sins to atone
|
While I walk through the fire alone
|
|
Hold onto your children
|
Hold onto your mama
|
Hold onto the ones that you love
|
Hold onto your heart
|
Hold onto your visions
|
Hold onto what you're dreaming of
|
If there's something missing
|
Or if you're hiding from
|
Someone you long to have known
|
Then you'll walk thru the fire
|
Walk through the fire
|
