LYRICS


Fire in the Hole

Fire in the hole you’ve got a whole lot of talking to do as you grow
1,000 words per second they say I couldn’t think that way I couldn’t think that way
But my brain, my brain fights all their verbal disease
Their brain keeps it coming with electricity and
Fire in the hole
You’ve got a whole lot of talking but not too much going on

And it makes everything oh it makes everything so right
Putting yourself out there in a lullaby of dynamite

You don’t need no introduction
Don’t need no road construction
Who am I who are you what do we know?
You call yourself a doctor and he’ll just call you old
One topic no feeling know how
They call the police to teach you lessons bout how
You’ve got to work on your form
Got to work on your form if you’ve got something to say

Its all about the control to get your back to face what’s in the road
Cause that’s whats been happening, you and I weren't meant to see
But I ain’t tryin to complain, my mother and father didn’t raise me that way
No instead… Fire in the hole keep my self control find a little corner sit back and watch the world blow

And it makes everything oh it makes everything so right
Writing a soundtrack here out of lullabies and dynamite

You don’t need no introduction
Don’t need no road construction
Who am I who are you what do we know?
You call yourself a doctor and he’ll just call you old
One topic no feeling know how
They call the police to teach you lessons bout how
You’ve got to work on your form
Got to work on your form if you’ve got something to say
The only one to ever scar the heart is love…

Oh simmer down now
We’re losing the fight
Ok its ok don’t run for cover yet
We have to fight our way through this

Instead of screaming to some god above
Try talking with the god who lives your heart
He listens so well, he knows when your scared
He'll help you share your thoughts not force your ways

He'll help you realize what the world needs most
Is some good old fashioned universal love
Our boundaries are fake, nobody's the same
All made by what we choose to see

So if the world's military is stacked against you
Your in a situation… a position to lose
When bullets and blades won’t turn them away
The only could ever scar the heart is love.
