Strange fire, I tried to go where I ought not to go
Strange fire, one mistake is all it takes you know, can’t erase
Burning like a beacon, illuminating all my crimes
A spark of good intentions, with ignorance the flames will rise
and I realize as the flames grow higher
I was too quick to give in to selfish desire
Strange fire, I tried to go where I ought not to go
Strange fire, one mistake is all it takes you know, can’t erase
It didn’t take long for my sins to find me out
Consumed with consequences and paralyzed from the heart down
I’m choking on the ashes and smoke
The lies and contradictions I spoke
The promises I recklessly broke
Strange fire, I tried to go where I ought not to go
Strange fire, one mistake is all it takes you know
Strange fire, I took my life in my hands tonight
Strange fire, I’ll pay the price for thinking that I’m always right
It’s too late, no escape, it’s too late
