[Verse 1]
Ain't nobody listening
Ain't nobody there
Somebody is screaming, "This ain't fair"
Thirty pieces glistening
Speak up if you dare
That is what the book said, if you care

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Sheep and God
The Fourth, independence
Waiting to be led
Deep, the pain
The sting of dependence
This is what he said:

[Pre-Chorus 2]
"I'll take you all the way
A lifetime spent in just one day
I'll take you out the other side
It's my hellish pride"

[Chorus]
Sweet Jesus in the midnight sun
On fire as the day is won
You got to know that it's cold outside
Why don't you come for a ride?
[Verse 2]
Think that something's missing
Or something's just not fair
Somebody is hanging over there
I was at my own christening
I wasn't quite aware
I didn't have the choice to even dare

[Pre-Chorus 1]
I fell asleep at night
Independence
Waiting for the word
In nightmares and deceit
Of dependence
This is what I heard:

[Pre-Chorus 2]
"I'll take you anyway
Hopeless, faithless, it's okay
I'll take you on the lifetime ride
It's my hellish pride"

[Refrain]
Fire

[Chorus]
Sweet Jesus in the midnight sun (Fire)
On fire as the day is won (Fire)
You got to know that it's cold outside (Fire)
Why don't you come for a ride?
I got a hellish pride
[Bridge]
Sweet Jesus in the midnight sun
On fire as the day is won
Sweet Jesus in the midnight sun
I got my pride

[Guitar Solo]

[Pre-Chorus]
I'll take you all the way
I'll take you anyway

[Chorus]
Sweet Jesus in the midnight sun
On fire as the day is won
You got to know that it's cold outside
Why don't you come for a ride?
I got a hellish pride

Sweet Jesus in the midnight sun
On fire as the day is won
You got to know that it's cold outside
Why don't you come for a ride?
I got a hellish pride

Sweet Jesus in the midnight sun
On fire as the day is won
You got to know that it's cold outside
Why don't you come for a ride?
I got a hellish pride
[Outro]
Sweet Jesus in the midnight sun
On fire as the day is won
You got to know that it's cold outside
Why don't you come for a ride?
I got a hellish pride

Sweet Jesus in the midnight sun
On fire as the day is won...
