Overkill - Who Tends The Fire lyrics

rate me

who tends the fire

who keeps the torches lit

who fills your eyes with smoke

so you can't see

I need the fire

I need the torches lit

to see through all the smoke covering me

I have seen the fires burning

burning through the night

I have watched the tides a turning

and they go from dark to light

what is this meaning

what does this writing mean

where do I go

what do I do for now

propheces are foolish

they never last

they never speak the truth

so why are they calling me now.

I don't know cause I cannot see

all i'm sure is gotta be

i'm not sure that i'm even me

but I know that I gotta be

yes I know that you're gonna die.

birth, life, death, is the reason why

save those fears that you're gonna cry.

cause I know that you're gonna die

yes I know I cannot see

and i'm sure that I gotta be

all these voices are killin' me

but they say that I got

say that I got

say that I gotta be me.

who tends the fire

who keeps the torches lit

who fill your eyes with smoke

so you can't see

I need the fire

I need the torches lit to see
