The House Is On Fire

I smell smoke on the holy ground
I feel heat, something's coming down
I'm barely awake in this midnight hour
Under the spell of a numbing power
I can taste flames in the scorching light
How I wish I was dreaming, wrong and not right
I wish I was wrong, and not right, right, right

How can I hesitate?
It's getting harder to breathe
In the gray smoke hanging, suffocating me

The house is on fire

The walls are alive in this red-hot blaze
Shout to the sleepers through the terminal haze
As the sparks fly up and the flames reach higher
Call me what you will, but I ain't no liar

The house is on fire
