Arsonist's Lullabye Lyrics

When I was a child I heard voices
Some would sing and some you scream
You soon find you have few choices
I learned the voices died with me
When I was a child I sat for hours
Staring into open flame
Something in it had a power
Could barely tear my eyes away
All you have is your fire
And the place you need to reach

Don't you ever tame your demons
But always keep them on leash
When I was sixteen my sense fooled me
Thought gasoline was on my clothes
I knew that something would always rule me
I knew that scent was mine alone
All you have is your fire
And the place you need to reach
Don't you ever tame your demons
But always keep them on a leash
When I was a man I thought it ended
When I knew love's perfect ache
But my peace has always depended
On all the ashes in my wake
All you have is your fire
And the place you need to reach
Don't you ever tame your demons
But always keep them on a leash
