Back

Face The Fire Tab

INTRO

              
              


VERSE 1

         
I hear the thunder

            
Three miles away

           
The island's leaking

        
Into the bay

              
The poison is spreading

            
The demon is free

             
And people are running from

                    
What they can't even see.

CHORUS

       
Face the fire

              
You can't turn away

             
The risk grows greater

                 
With each passing day

            
The waiting's over

              
The moment has come

          
To kill the fire

               
And turn to the sun.

VERSE 2

                
They'll take your money

                  
And then take your health

            
To line their pockets with

         
Unequaled wealth

              
These men are under

            
The power of gold

          
We won't be safe until we

              
Shut them down cold.

CHORUS

VERSE 3

                           
The people came to the capitol town

          
One hundred thousand of them

                 
Laid their hearts down

                 
They screamed in anger

                   
And broadcast their fears

      
Just to have them

            
Fall on deaf ears.
