“Fire in the sky” is a ballad off of Osbourne’s fifth studio album “No Rest for the Wicked”. The song tells a story of a man with a troubled childhood, who’s deep hidden problems come to the daylight.
[Verse 1]
The introduction to his heartache began as a child
So it's no wonder that he grew up to be so wild
So he protected his feelings in walls he imagined
But castles crumble exposing a frightened child
[Chorus]
Fire in the sky, can't you see that all my castles are burning?
Fire in the sky, won't you help me now my castles are burning
[Verse 2]
In solitude he couldn't deal with his own existence
The burning questions in the castles have still remained
God only knows how he searched in vain for the answers
Now castles crumble exposing his naked flames, yeah
[Chorus 9x]
Fire in the sky, can't you see that all my castles are burning?
Fire in the sky, won't you help me now my castles are burning
