The Fire

You let the fire out and it’s right in front of me
You let the fire out and it’s right in front of me
You stood tall
The fire began to let out
I trusted you’d refrain
And keep closed your mouth
You let the fire out and it’s right in front of me
You let the fire out and it’s right in front of me
Words crashing through the flames
Smoke spreading far
And I thought we’d remain
Free from its harm
You let the fire out and it’s right in front of me
You let the fire out and it’s right in front of me
Will we burn, will we burn
From the fire will we learn
To be mindful and keep away
From the words that ignite the flame
Our words will ignite the flame
You let the fire out and it’s right in front of me
You let the fire out and it’s right in front of me
You let the fire out and it’s right in front of me
You let the fire out and it’s right in front of me
Right in front of me
Face it don’t turn around
There’s no running from the heat
