Fighting Fires

People try to talk to me, I tell them that their talk is cheap, I don't wanna hear it anymore, Pushing and they're pulling me, To where it is they want me to be, I've never felt the burn so bad, Oh I feel the heat, Take me to the ocean and drown out the sound, All of the emotion is dragging me down, I've been Fighting Fires too long Forgotten what I'm fighting them for, I'm gonna run to the higher ground, Get away 'til it all burns out, I've been Fighting Fires too long, And I won't go down in flames, No matter how much I try, I never seem to satisfy, I've been shaking at the core, Circling they prey on me, They got me where they want me to be, I never felt the burn so bad, Oh I feel the heat, Take me to the ocean and drown out the sound, All of these emotions are dragging me down, I've been Fighting Fires too long Forgotten what I'm fighting them for, I'm gonna run to the higher ground, Get away 'til it all burns out, I've been Fighting Fires too long, And I won't go down in flames, When I'm running in the sand, And the tide is coming in, I won't let it take me, no, Cause I'm the master of the land, I'm the ruler of the sea, And I won't let them break me no, I've been Fighting Fires too long Forgotten what I'm fighting them for, I'm gonna run to the higher ground, Get away 'til it all burns out, I've been Fighting Fires too long, And I won't go down in flames
