You took your life on a safe bet
And never doubted your dreams you'd soon forget
But something in your past stayed frozen
And that something keeps you running, running
But how long will you stand
For all that you never, ever really wanted?
The fear keeps haunting your mind
It drives you to seek another life
We're only fighting the fire
With all these good intentions
When it comes down to the wire
Will we see we're defenseless
You're looking over your shoulder
For a day that'll never come
And now you're one year older
And not a single thing was done
But now that you're starting to feel
So lonely, so empty in your life
Will you stop trying to build
That hollow shell you call your disguise
We're only fighting the fire
With all these good intentions
When it comes down to the wire
Will we see we're defenseless
We're only fighting the fire
With all these good intentions
When it comes down to the wire
Will we see we're defenseless
We're only, we're only fighting
We're only, we're only fighting
We're only fighting the fire
With all these good intentions
When it comes down to the wire
Will we see we're defenseless
We're only fighting the fire
With all these good intentions
When it comes down to the wire
Will we see we're defenseless
We're only, we're only fighting
We're only, we're only fighting
