The Way of the Fire

The water rose above my head The next thing I remember I was carried down the stream Left me washed up on that shore But the power of the flood still burned inside of me It's the way of the fire It's the way of the fire I took the first step without fear I didn't see the danger of what the stream could do And then I felt the undertow Of all the things I asked for, coming true It's the way of the fire (Just one step into the flame) It's the way of the fire (He starts consuming everything) When it's all gonna burn (I'm refined and strengthened by) The way of the fire I don't know how long I have been Lying in the stillness and staring up at blue But then I hear the voice within Saying, come back in the water, and I do It's the way of the fire (Just one step into the flame) It's the way of the fire (He starts consuming everything) When it's all gonna burn (I'm refined and strengthened by) The way of the fire The way of the fire And the river's rise is a scary thing But it always runs downstream The way of the fire The way of the fire
