[Verse 1:] When I was a child, I heard voices, Some would sing and some would scream, You soon find you have few choices, I learned the voices died with me. When I was a child, I'd sit for hours, Staring into open flames, Something in it had a power, Could barely tear my eyes away.
[Chorus:] All you have is your fire, And the place you need to reach. Don't you ever tame your demons, But always keep them on a leash.
[Verse 2:] When I was sixteen, my senses fooled me, Thought gasoline was on my clothes. I knew that something would always rule me, I knew this sin was mine alone.
[Chorus:] All you have is your fire, And the place you need to reach. Don't you ever tame your demons, But always keep them on a leash.
[Verse 3:] When I was a man, I thought it ended, Well, I knew love's perfect ache. But my peace has always depended On all the ashes in my way.
[Chorus:] All you have is your fire, And the place you need to reach. Don't you ever tame your demons, But always keep them on a leash.
