In the darkness it finds me the terrible fire   It don't matter how much I pray   The flames leap and burn me there's nothing I can do   To make the fear go away      So I try to keep moving   Try not to look back   Push really hard on the stone   I walk through the fire alone      The tree by my window turns gray in November   I watch the leaves as they fall   The branches left naked reach up so proudly   I wish to God you would call      But me I'm the dead one   You are the lover   Who loved me right down to my bones   Now I walk through the fire alone      The powers that push me   They move me they own me   They constantly tell me to run   I try not to listen, I try to fight them   But never a battle I've won      So let go of lovers   I let go of diamonds   I've plenty of sins to atone   While I walk through the fire alone      Hold onto your children, hold onto your mama   Hold onto the ones that you love   Hold onto your heart, hold onto your visions   Hold onto what you're dreaming of      And if there's something missing   If you're hiding from someone you long to have known   Then you'll walk through the fire   Walk through the fire   Walk through the fire alone
