You thought it was gone But the fire goes on And i thought you knew me I told you before 'Til I settle the score That I'll never run free I have enough pain and anger in my brain To last many lifetimes Yet it still grows, and the more that it shows I won't have peace of mind
The fire, the fire still burns The fire, the fire still burns
I have a dream And as strange as it seems There's no embers glowing The fire's gone out and there's no need to shout 'Cause no anger's showing But it's not true, nothing I ever do Seems to ease my fury Get out of my way I'm the hangman today And the judge and jury
The fire, the fire still burns The fire, the fire still burns The fire, the fire still burns The fire, the fire still burns
(whispers): The fire, the fire still burns The fire, the fire still burns The fire
The fire still burns The fire, the fire still burns
