about

FIRE is about taking caution: it's easy to want to fight back in the face of adversity, to give into that primal instinct, but destruction does not create; and good health comes from moderation. In addition, one should not let others use you as a conduit to their own potentially toxic agendas. "You do not fool me, You will not fuel me"

lyrics

[Verse 1]
Here at the centre, at the core,
All will cower at my roar
Your days are numbered, warrior:
Is his sacrifice worth the price?
Inaugural Herculean task:
Invulnerable to human hands
So who will be victorious,
The calculated, or instinct primal?

[Chorus]
It's easy to give into hate,
But destruction does not create
You never notice where it's going
Until it is far too late
You do not fool me, you will not fuel me
Or usurp this golden desire;
So all take heed:
Don't get burned when playing with fire

[Verse 2]
But don't act like you can't deny:
We're not so different, you and I
They claim our skin is precious,
A bounty worthy of a hero
And so they journeyed far and wide
For a chance to skin my hide
When envy builds their nexus
All logic gets reduced to zero

{rpt Chorus}

[Bridge]
Ward off the toxic heresy
(They're not special, you're not their vessel)
X marks the spot, my prophecy
(My arrow will fly, and hit the bullseye)
Even light cannot escape me
(You can quit it, know your limit)
The centre of your galaxy
(Many fires orbit me)

{rpt Chorus}
