Calm the Fire - Alter Bridge

Calm the fire, do not fight anymore

They don’t know what they’re saying, they don’t know anything at all

For all that matters is you know that this is not their fault

All the places we should never go

Lost between the cracks something wicked waits below

And all I’m saying there are some things better left unseen at all

It’s been so long it’s tearing me apart

I cannot understand or comprehend

Where we went wrong.

Now we’ve come so far

The madness in our hearts will never end

Cause I’ve seen it all

I can’t fight it anymore

If I had burned forevermore

Is there nothing left to save?

Cause now more than ever what we need

Is love to replace all the obscene

Something good and something beautiful, if only we could see

That now more than ever what we need

Is a little love

Is there no more have we gone too far?

There’s nothing I can do to make you sway

To see the blood running through our hearts

No different from the blood we’ve come to hate

When I close my eyes

I dream that we are colorblind

And now you know you can’t deny

Only ignorance to blame

Now let it calm the fire

That burns within your heart tonight

For some are too blind to see

The world as it’s meant to be
