lyrics
when I was a child
I touched the fire
I would play
with things that burn
I played with alcohol
cotton and matches
on glass plates
and stone floors
and my mother would tell me to beware of the sun
but I didn't care
and it didn't burn
and now they tell me that the sun will burn out
like other suns in other worlds
but I will not be there to see it happen
I'm just a slave with hopes to be free
my feet burning
because I walk on fire
I touched the fire
I would play
with things that burn
I played with alcohol
cotton and matches
on glass plates
and stone floors
and my mother would tell me to beware of the sun
but I didn't care
and it didn't burn
and now they tell me that the sun will burn out
like other suns in other worlds
but I will not be there to see it happen
I'm just a slave with hopes to be free
my feet burning
because I walk on fire
