Intro
With the hand of God swinging from my neck
I walked back up the stairs
God knows why I did I knew what was waiting there
Black eyes like coal and a heart like an empty pot of gold
God damn I should've seen it and I had just fixed up my soul
In the dark I heard some laughing I thought that it was you
But I done some deeper thinking it could've been me
Oh man I am recovering but will the fire never end?
So hard what with remembering and the foolishness of feeling
Oh man I am remembering why the fire never ends
So hard all this recovering at the heavy way I'm feeling
Saw a crystal ball rolling down the street thought I'd try to hop a ride
God damn I couldn't catch it went and left me mystified
No moon no stars and no gas in the tanks of any cars
God knows I should be moving but I would not be getting far
In the dark I heard some screaming I just assumed that it was you
But once I knew I was dreaming it had to be me
Oh man I am recovering but will the fire never end?
So hard what with remembering and the foolishness of feeling
Oh man I am remembering why the fire never ends
So hard all this recovering with the heavy way I'm feeling
Can't find the keys to the kingdom
I will be going
He will be going
With the dead of night running from the dawn I walked back down the stairs
Now I know why I did it there was nothing for me there
Regret's not cheap running wild it'll cost you more than sleep
I thought I was the secret but I was too easy to keep
Now I had heard some begging and I knew it couldn't be you
Cause you were standing in your kitchen looking at me
Oh man I am recovering but will the fire never end?
So hard what with remembering and the foolishness of feeling
Oh man I am remembering why the fire never ends
So hard all this recovering with the heavy way I'm feeling
With the heavy way I'm feeling
With the heavy way I'm feeling
