"Who Tends The Fire" lyrics
"Who Tends The Fire"
Who tends the fire
Who keeps the torches lit
Who fills your eyes with smoke
So you can't see
I need the fire
I need the torches lit
To see through all the smoke covering me
I have seen the fires burning
Burning through the night
I have watched the tides a turning
And they go from dark to light
What is this meaning
What does this writing mean
Where do I go
What do I do for now
Prophecies are foolish
They never last
They never speak the truth
So why are they calling me now
I don't know cause I cannot see
All I'm sure is gotta be
I'm not sure that I'm even me
But I know that I gotta be
Yes I know that you're gonna die
Birth, life, death, is the reason why
Save those fears that you're gonna cry
Cause I know that you're gonna die
Yes I know I cannot see
And I'm sure that I gotta be
All these voices are killin' me
But they say that I got
Say that I got
Say that I gotta be me
Who tends the fire
Who keeps the torches lit
Who fill your eyes with smoke
So you can't see
I need the fire
I need the torches lit to see

Motorhead - "Love Me Forever" Love me forever or not at all
End of our tether, backs to the wall
Give me your hand, don't you ever ask why
Promise me nothing, live till we die
Everything changes, it all stays the same
Everyone...
Megadeth - "Symphony Of Destruction" You take a mortal man
And put him in control
Watch him become a god
Watch people's heads a-roll
A-roll, A-roll
Just like the Pied Piper
Led rats through the streets
We dance like marionettes
Swaying...
Slayer - "The Antichrist" Screams and nightmares
Of a life I want
Can't see living this lie no
A world I haunt
You've lost all control of my
Heart and soul
Satan holds my future
Watch it unfold
I am the Antichrist
It's what...
Halford - "Silent Screams" Look at me I'm chasing
After dreams left in the storm
What I am is all
That really matters now
That lies are gone
That lies are gone
All the lies are gone
The lies are gone
Tempting fate and losing...
Savatage - "Gutter Ballet" Another sleepless night
A concrete paradise
Sirens screaming in the heat
Neon cuts the eye
As the jester sighs
At the world beneath his feet
It's a gutter ballet
Just a menagerie
Still the orchestra...
