Just Like Fire Would

One night in a motel room

eyes cast like steel

I drank the wine they left on my table

I knew the morning was too far

I smoked my last pack of foreign cigarettes

I stay only to survive

the night was dark and the land is cold

it's frozen right to the bone

and just like fire would

I burn up

just like fire would

And just like fire would

I burn up

500 miles I have gone today

tomorrow it's 500 more

outside my window the world passes by

its stranger than a dream

and just like fire would

I burn up

just like fire would

And just like fire would

I burn up

I go to work and I earn my pay, lord

and the sweat it falls to the ground

I see you now but we may never meet again child

the ice is hanging on the door

One night in a motel room

eyes cast like steel

I drank the wine they left on my table

I knew the morning was too far

and just like fire would

I burn up

just like fire would

And just like fire would

I burn up
