Upside-down, slapped about, sound of crying In the darkness, trying to find the warmth of fire Wise men talking, wise men lying Scheeming to choke up my every desire
Stashed in gray, nailed to desks, a taste of learning Still in darkness, for they teach us not to think I abide and yet I'm yearning For all shades of colour, from deep-blue to pink
Don't blind my soul (Don't blind my soul) Do not cripple my eyes (Live my own life) I can live my own life I can throw my own dice
Fire to fuel my desire To look, to enquire To wrestle, to struggle To stand firm, I plunge into fire
Oh...
Now this fire that fuels soul and brain Could it possibly freeze up against my skin? Drops of sweet-bitter rain Soak me and throw me against every wind
Don't blind my heart (Don't blind my heart) Do not cripple my mind (Live my own life) I can feel warmth and light I can live my own life
Fire to fuel my desire To think, to aspire I plunge to the fire (To the fire)
Don't blind my soul (Don't blind my soul) Do not cripple my eyes (Live my own life) I can live my own life I can throw my own dice
Fire to fuel my desire To look, to enquire To wrestle, to struggle To stand firm, I plunge into fire
Ah... ah... ah...
Don't blind my soul (Don't blind my soul) Do not cripple my eyes (Live my own life) I can live my own life I can throw my own dice
Fire to fuel my desire To look, to enquire To wrestle, to struggle To stand firm, I plunge into fire
