Fight Your Fire Lyrics - Singles - Ayer

Walking on coal and brass is harder than I can stand 

The fire escape is looking fine enough 

But I'll stay where it's hotter, even though I know better 

I feel the flame under water, I'm numb but still feeling pain 

This time I'll break the glass and fight the fire 

I'll try, I'll try, I'll try to fight your fire 

I will take a chance, though we're down to the wire 

I'll try, I'll try, I'll try to fight your fire 

Falling beneath our feet like sand through broken fingers 

the floor is all mirror held up with ancient tape 

Inside of a picture I try to remember 

I hear the pull of a match and the start of a feverish blaze 

This time I'll break the glass and fight the fire 

I'll try, I'll try, I'll try to fight your fire 

I will take a chance, though we're down to the wire 

I'll try, I'll try, I'll try to fight your fire
