Fire

There's a fire In the hills beyond town See the smoke as it rises Casting shadows of doubt It's clouding their vision Between wrong and right Blazing Sonnets Under moonlit skies I saw the flames They leapt higher and high Light up the hillside Against the cold dark night The battle it raged Between man and fire Faded silhouettes In this final hour In this final hour There's a panic Spreading cross town It's in their eyes Underneath furled brows Scattered memories All their hopes and dreams Packed into boxes As they up and leave I saw the flames They leapt higher and high Light up the hillside Against the cold dark night The battle it raged Between man and fire Faded silhouettes In this final hour In this final hour We'll let the smoke rise No more compromise We'll fan the flame And as the winds blow And the flames grow It's not the same It's not the same I saw the flames They leapt higher and high Light up the hillside Against the cold dark night The battle it raged Between man and fire Faded silhouettes In this final hour In this final hour
