Does it matter I have nothing but a burning all around?

Can you lead me to the water? Though I’d rather burn than drown

Pouring measures, taking numbers

Have I nothing else to do than turn to you?

Nothing but the beating of a drum

Nothing but the pounding of my blood

I’m a man on fire tonight

I’m a man on fire, you burn me out

Do you think straight when you’re tied up?

Through your wicker arms I shout

Getting closer, getting warmer

Getting all wrapped up in doubt

Are you going? Are you staying?

'Cause I’m getting tired of waiting

For you endlessly

Nothing but the beating of a drum

Nothing but the pounding of my blood

I’m a man on fire tonight

I’m a man on fire, you burn me out

Do you lie awake as I do, with your master switch you voodoo?

Do you dream the dream, or taste the taste

Of breath that lingers on your face?

The Big O spinning in his grave

I’m a man on fire tonight

I’m a man on fire, you burn me out

I’m a man on fire tonight

I’m a man on fire, you burn me out
