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

The fire
The fire still burns
The fire
The fire still burns
The fire
The fire still burns
The fire
The fire still burns

The fire
The fire
The fire
The fire
