Lyrics

Our days are controlled by the box of light
Entranced by sights and sounds, who can stand up and fight
Our threads, thoughts and words are on cue
We mimic and worship the untrue

Your speakers pour forth a constant stream
You know we’re drinking in the obscene
Our consciences seared by a ruthless scheme
Our eyes transfixed, our ears deceived

How long will we let it live
The spirit that's working in our midst
Dancing lights and the radio that plays
Just stop and let me say

Don’t you know that fire burns
Can’t you see your mind’s enslaved as you turn
Unto the will of him who yearns
To condemn your soul to die in the flames
Don’t you know that fire burns, don’t you know that fire burns

A lethal mix from illuminated screens
As the depraved display the extremes
The violation of both young and old
By a force that’s waging war on your soul

How long will we let it stay
Good is now evil, and evil is ok
They mouth empty words and entice those who pray
Just stop and let me say

Don’t you know that fire burns
Can’t you see your mind’s enslaved as you turn
Unto the will of him who yearns
To condemn your soul to die in the flames
Don’t you know that fire burns, don’t you know that fire burns

Don’t you know that fire burns
Do you believe the One who rose from the grave
He wants your mind on what He’s done
To live out your days free from this cage

Don’t you know that fire burns
Don’t you know that fire burns
Don’t you know that fire burns
Don’t you know that fire burns
