Fire on the Mountain - Rob Thomas

Fire on the mountain

Through the fields, save yourself

There’s evil in the garden

You don’t see it, I can tell

How do you sleep while the city’s burning?

Where do you go when you can’t go home?

How do you drink when there’s blood in the water?

Where do you turn when the world moves on?

When the world moves on, on

Fire on the mountain

You can feel it against your skin

You’re standing by the river

Let the river take you in

How do you sleep while the city’s burning?

Where do you go when you can’t go home?

How do you drink when there’s blood in the water?

Where do you turn when the world moves on?

When the world moves on

When the world moves on, on

Yeah, well I see smoke out on the horizon

Mama, get your baby, take it down to the water

I feel the wind like a promise broken

I see the future, but it’s getting farther

I see smoke out on the horizon

Mama, get your baby, take it down to the water

I feel the wind like a promise broken

I see the future, but it’s getting farther

How do you sleep while the city’s burning?

Where do you go when you can’t go home?

How do you drink when there’s blood in the water?

Where do you turn when the world moves on?

When the world moves on

When the world moves on, on
