We stand like, burnin' timber
What else could I do?
Was it enough to put an end to
The risin' flames?
Helpless among the cinders
Try and stop the world from turning
Now hand in hand, we walk alone
The less we are gainin'
We stand like, burnin' timber
Helpless among the cinders
I was the one you gave your heart to
I prayed for rain, when the sky was blue
What else could I do?
We need to work our way around it
You fight me tooth and nail
Let it be the way we found it
We stand like, burnin' timber
Helpless among the cinders
But it won't slow down
I prayed for rain, when the sky was blue
You build me up, you cut me down
We stand like, burnin' timber
Along this blazing trail
I prayed for rain, when the sky was blue
The more that everything keeps changin'
But after all what did it get you?
What else could I do?
