I haven't been around awhile What's been going on? The emptiness that's in your smile Tells me something must be wrong I know you've heard it said before "Once burned, twice shy" Your chasing fame and fortune But the glory fades and the feelings die It's like a child With this lesson to be learned If you're playin' with fire You're gonna get burned Into the arena Lasers cut the air The heartbeat of the thousands Its what's drawn you to the stars Is it you they came to see And idol of the age? They lay down on your altars But you just turn away You shoot a lethal does of worldly pride You're walkin' the wire Bein' pulled by your desire
While His love is burning in the night He's fighting for your life And I wonder why you're still... Playin' with fire Choose the fire that He sends 'Cause both those fires never end! Our global colloseum Was the stage He played Conquering the darkness His blood the ransom paid The serpent lifted in glory Will never hide that truth His love is always marchin' on I don't care what you do Don't shoot a letha dose of worldly pride Don't walk on the wire Don't get pulled by your desire As His love is burning in the night We're fighting for your life Until you see the light We will play with fire!
