Fire Burning

[Verse 1]
There's fire burning
Oh there's pain in my desire
Keeps rising up
Gonna make it to my feet
There's hunger yearning
And I think sometimes it's tearing me up
As the setting sun comes crashing down on me

[Verse 2]
Would you desert me?
'Cause I'm not the man I once was
Would you build me up
Then shatter all my dreams?
I keep on hurting
And I think sometimes it's tearing me up
As the setting sun comes crashing down on me
As the setting sun comes crashing down on me

[Verse 3]
There's fire burning
There's pain in my desire
Keeps rising up
Gonna make it to my feet
There's hunger yearning
But I think sometimes it's tearing me up
As the setting sun comes crashing down on me

[Verse 4]
I bear the burden (fire)
But fear I'll be forgotten
I'm losing touch (fire)
With the love inside of me
Though I'm not certain
And I think sometimes it's tearing me up
As the setting sun comes crashing down on me
As the setting sun comes crashing down on me
As the setting sun comes crashing down on me

[Chorus]
All the kids are running wild, crying that they've finally lost it
Can I take you by the hand, make you understand what the cost is?
In this world, all I need is a body when the cities are burning
Let's take the other hand, maybe we can make it right
They don't know that you're tired
It's down to the wire, we're falling
Now we're kicking and we're crying
Know that I don't wanna recall this
In the places that we gave them the words
They scare me when arms are lifted
Let's take the other hand, maybe we can make it right
Maybe we can make it right

[Bridge]
When we make it back home
I hope that you know
We will be new again
Take your heart and your soul
Wherever you go
We will be new again
When we make it back home
I hope that you know
We will be new again
Take your heart and your soul
Wherever you go
We will be new again

[Verse 5]
There's fire burning
Oh there's pain in my desire
Keeps rising up
Gonna make it to my feet
There's hunger yearning
And I think sometimes it's tearing me up
As the setting sun comes crashing down on me
As the setting sun comes crashing down on me
