You Keep Putting Out the Fire
Keep waiting for a lightning strike
To spark me to a better life
Waiting for an alibi
The jury sense another lie
I'm a witness of a different sort
I've been summoned by the court
You build a funeral pyre
Inviting all the winners
I am the highest bidder
But I just stand and shiver
You keep putting out the fire
On the ground and left for dead
But I'm crawling back to life not scared
This isn't what I'd like to choose
To hear the burden of my proof
You keep bringing an amendment
You keep calling me defendant
You build a funeral pyre
Inviting all the winners
I am the highest bidder
But I just stand and shiver
You keep putting out the fire
I don't want to linger
Consider me a sinner
I just stand and shiver
You keep putting out the fire
You build a funeral pyre
Inviting all the winners
I am the highest bidder
But I just stand and shiver
You keep putting out the fire
I don't want to linger
Consider me a sinner
I just stand and shiver
You keep putting out the fire
Inviting all the winners
I am the highest bidder
But I just stand and shiver
You keep putting out the fire
I don't want to linger
Consider me a sinner
I just stand and shiver
You keep putting out the fire
To spark me to a better life
Waiting for an alibi
The jury sense another lie
I'm a witness of a different sort
I've been summoned by the court
You build a funeral pyre
Inviting all the winners
I am the highest bidder
But I just stand and shiver
You keep putting out the fire
On the ground and left for dead
But I'm crawling back to life not scared
This isn't what I'd like to choose
To hear the burden of my proof
You keep bringing an amendment
You keep calling me defendant
You build a funeral pyre
Inviting all the winners
I am the highest bidder
But I just stand and shiver
You keep putting out the fire
I don't want to linger
Consider me a sinner
I just stand and shiver
You keep putting out the fire
You build a funeral pyre
Inviting all the winners
I am the highest bidder
But I just stand and shiver
You keep putting out the fire
I don't want to linger
Consider me a sinner
I just stand and shiver
You keep putting out the fire
Inviting all the winners
I am the highest bidder
But I just stand and shiver
You keep putting out the fire
I don't want to linger
Consider me a sinner
I just stand and shiver
You keep putting out the fire
