Overkill - Who Tends The Fire lyrics

WHO KEEPS THE TORCHES LIT

WHO FILLS YOUR EYES WITH SMOKE

SO YOU CAN'T SEE

I NEED THE FIRE

I NEED THE TORCHES LIT

TO SEE THROUGH ALL THE SMOKE

COVERING ME

CHORUS

I HAVE SEEN THE FIRES BURNING

BURNING THROUGH THE NIGHT

I HAVE WATCHED THE TIDES A TURNING

AND THEY GO FROM DARK TO LIGHT

WHAT IS THIS MEANING

WHAT DOES THIS WRITING MEAN

WHERE DO I GO

WHAT DO I DO FOR NOW

PROPHECES ARE FOOLISH

THEY NEVER LAST

THEY NEVER SPEAK THE TRUTH

SO WHY ARE THEY CALLING ME NOW.

CHORUS

I DON'T KNOW CAUSE I CANNOT SEE

ALL I'M SURE IS GOTTA BE

I'M NOT SURE THAT I'M EVEN ME

BUT I KNOW THAT I GOTTA BE

YES I KNOW THAT YOU'RE GONNA DIE.

BIRTH, LIFE, DEATH, IS THE REASON WHY

SAVE THOSE FEARS THAT YOU'RE GONNA CRY.

CAUSE I KNOW THAT YOU'RE GONNA DIE

YES I KNOW I CANNOT SEE

AND I'M SURE THAT I GOTTA BE

ALL THESE VOICES ARE KILLIN' ME

BUT THEY SAY THAT I GOT

SAY THAT I GOT

SAY THAT I GOTTA BE ME.

WHO TENDS THE FIRE

WHO KEEPS THE TORCHES LIT

WHO FILL YOUR EYES WITH SMOKE

SO YOU CAN'T SEE

I NEED THE FIRE

I NEED THE TORCHES LIT

TO SEE

CHORUS
