Lyrics

[Verse 1] 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 through all the smoke Covering me [Chorus] I have seen the fires burning Burning through the night I have watched the tides a-turning And they go from dark to light [Verse 2] What is this meaning? What does this writing mean? Where do I go? What do I do for now? Prophecies are foolish They never last They never speak the truth So, why are they calling me now? [Chorus] I have seen the fires burning Burning through the night And I have watched the tides a-turning And they go from dark to light [Bridge 1] I don't know, 'cause I cannot see All I'm sure is I gotta be I'm not sure that I'm even me But I know that I gotta be [Bridge 2] You don't know that you're gonna die Birth, life, death is the reason why Save those tears that you're gonna cry 'Cause I know that you're gonna die [Bridge 3] Yes, I know, though I cannot see And I'm sure that I gotta be All these voices are killin' me And they say that I got Say that I got Say that I gotta be me [Verse 3] 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 [Chorus] I have seen the fires burning They're burning through the night I have watched the tide a-turning Still, the fire burning bright [Guitar Solo Outro]
