Staring At The Fire |
I’ve always had trouble staying still |
I stand next to what I hate just for the trill |
Spent the first quarter of my life on a million dollar bill |
'Cause I can’t stop staring at the fire |
We got our crosses and our buildings, build 'em tall |
And my book’s another brick inside the wall |
We sure make ourselves feel busy, but we don’t do much at all |
Except sit around and stare at the fire |
And the protesters have gathered in the streets |
Opposite, a block full of police |
But they both have the same problem with God as you and me |
It’s that they just can’t stop staring at the fire |
Watch it burn, burn, burn |
Watch it burn, burn, burn |
Watch it burn, burn, burn |
Watch it burn, burn, burn |
And to an ashram a million miles from here |
An old man on a blanket appeared |
He waved me to come closer, and he whispered in my ear |
«Son, you’ve got to stop staring at the fire» |
But all my ego trips come in flocks |
And they tell me, «Kid, it’s really not that hot» |
Take your anxiety and your guilt, just throw it all on top |
Now I can’t stop standing in the fire |
Oh, watch me burn, burn, burn |
Watch me burn, burn, burn |
Watch me burn, burn, burn |
Watch me burn, burn, burn |
Oh, watch me burn, burn, burn |
Watch me burn, burn, burn |
Watch me burn, burn, burn |
Watch me burn, burn, burn |
