Fireside
Fire Fire Burning bright
Lighting up the sky at night
Embers flare as fires blaze
Neath the thickest city's haze
Hear the crackling, burning pop
Feel the flames touch as you hop
And try to run away
Though fire calls "Oh please do stay!"
Thin blades of flame dance about
Twisting, turning, disguising your shout
Your distant cry of pain
But what will you find left to gain
If you found escape from the following flame
If the fire's power was fondly made tame
Running through the burning smoke
What is here for fire to stoke
Step light and quick
The clock's fast tick
Time near gone but you are here
Running from the mounting fear
Fire Fire burning bright
Please don't take my life tonight
