Who Tends the Fire - Overkill

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 through all the smoke

Covering me

I have seen the fire 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 have seen the fire burning

Burning through the night

And I have watched the tides a`turning

And they go from dark to light

I don’t know cause I cannot see

All I’m sure is I gotta be

I’m not sure that I’m even me

But I know that I gotta be

You don’t know that you’re gonna die

Birth, life, death is the reason why

Save those tears that you’re gonna cry

Cause I know that you’re gonna die

Yes, I know, though I cannot see

And I’m sure that I gotta be

All these voices are killing me

And 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

I have seen the fires burning

They’re burning through the night

I have watched the tide a`turning

Still the fire burning bright
