Burning Timber

I prayed for rain, when the sky was blue
You build me up, you cut me down
We stand like, burnin' timber
We stand like, burnin' timber
You fight me tooth and nail
I prayed for rain, when the sky was blue
What else could I do?

Along this blazing trail
Now hand in hand, we walk alone
I prayed for rain, when the sky was blue
The risin' flames?

We stand like, burnin' timber

What else could I do?
Let it be the way we found it

Try and stop the world from turning
Helpless among the cinders
We need to work our way around it
The less we are gainin'
But it won't slow down

I was the one you gave your heart to
We stand like, burnin' timber
The more that everything keeps changin'
Was it enough to put an end to
What else could I do?
But after all what did it get you?
Helpless among the cinders
Helpless among the cinders
