Into The Fire [Live At The Royal Albert Hall]

Life - thin as a thread

Sometimes you're lucky

Sometimes you're better off dead

Your first breath is taken

And into the world you are cast

You long for tomorrow

While living each day as your last

Well, I know what your heart desires

But you can't take it with you

Into the fire

Now you're done all you can

Your life's at the crossroads

You watch as it slips through your hands

So you stand on the mountain

And shout in vain at the sky

But nobody hears you

The words only echo inside

Oh, shelter the flame - it may expire

Risin' up from the ashes

Into the fire

Just hold onto your life down to the wire

Oh, out from the dragon's jaws

Into the fire

There's a moment in every man's life

When he must decide

What is wrong and what's right

You could wait for your dreams to come true

But time has no mercy

Time won't stand still for you

Well, I know what your hard desires

Crawlin' out from the wreckage

Into the fire

Here I go... into the fire

I know... what your heart desires.
