Walking on coal and bra** is harder than I can stand The fire escape is looking fine enough But I'll stay where it's hotter, even though I know better I feel the flame under water, I'm numb but still feeling pain [Chorus] This time I'll break the gla** and fight the fire I'll try, I'll try, I'll try to fight your fire I will take a chance, go down to the wire I'll try, I'll try, I'll try to fight your fire Falling beneath our feet, like sand through broken fingers The floor is all mirror held up with ancient tape Inside of a picture, I try to remember I hear the pull of a match and the start of a feverish blaze [Chorus] This time I'll break the gla** and fight the fire I'll try, I'll try I'll try to fight your fire
