You thought it was gone But the fire goes on And I thought you knew me I told you before 'Til I settle the score That I'll never run free I have enough pain and anger in my brain To last many lifetimes Yet still it grows, and the more that it shows I won't have peace of mind The fire, the fire still burns
I have a dream And as strange as it seems There's no embers glowing The fire's gone out and there's no need to shout 'Cause no anger's showing But it's not true, nothing I ever do Seems to ease my fury Get out of my way I'm the hangman today And the judge and jury The fire, the fire still burns
