The House Is On Fire
I smell smoke on the holy ground
I feel heat; something's coming down
I'm barely awake in this midnight hour
Under the spell of a numbing power
I can taste flames in the scorching light
How I wish I was dreaming, wrong and not right
I wish I was wrong, and not right, right, right
How can I hesitate?
It's getting harder to breathe in the grey smoke hanging, suffocating me
The house is on fire, the house is on fire
The house is on fire, the house is on fire
The house is on fire, the house is on fire
The house is on fire, the house is on fire
The walls are alive in this red-hot blaze
Shout to the sleepers through the terminal haze
As the sparks fly up and the flames reach higher
Call me what you will, but I ain't no liar
The house is on fire, the house is on fire
The house is on fire, the house is on fire
The house is on fire, the house is on fire
The house is on fire, the house is on fire
The house is on fire, the house is on fire
The house is on fire, your house is on fire
The house is on fire
