I know the fires of the sun Every ray of light life giving Destroys a little more A spark for you would devastate my city Why does passion burn intensely? That my heart would turn to ash Its not what I intend That my heart becomes the coal Fire Fire brings warmth Fire eviscerates I guess its just my fate To be only smoke and memory As the better parts of me Burn away I know the fires of the sun And the bottom of the ocean Both are fools to gravities charms The weight you give me Why does passion reach so fully? That there is no skin I know That isn't marked By your tattooed name Fire My soul and heart on fire Fire is the name I love I'll burn as willing tinder To shed light upon your dreams I only hope you love me As a dream that will never be

Fire
I know the fires of the sun Every ray of light life giving Destroys a little more A spark for you would devastate my city Why does passion burn intensely? That my heart would turn to ash Its not what I intend That my heart becomes the coal Fire Fire brings warmth Fire eviscerates I guess its just my fate To be only smoke and memory As the better parts of me Burn away I know the fires of the sun And the bottom of the ocean Both are fools to gravities charms The weight you give me Why does passion reach so fully? That there is no skin I know That isn't marked By your tattooed name Fire My soul and heart on fire Fire is the name I love I'll burn as willing tinder To shed light upon your dreams I only hope you love me As a dream that will never be
