How naive of me to think Fire and water could meet And neither extinguish or evaporate How could I have thought More often than not Your flames as friendly fire? How could you think Over the edge on the brink My rain as merely showers? We were both forces of nature That should never be played with One which swallows forests And one which erodes the mountains Both to blame for a new beginning Both to blame for the old endings We could never be friends and we tried to be lovers How stupid we are to play with eachother Beware of the showers Beware of the flames Neutralization was never the game.
