Open-Minded

Walk with fire, burn your soul
Burn, burn
Inhale the present, face your fears
Open-minded
Taste the desire to be left alone
Sweet, sweet
Question becomes answer
No cheek turned, shut your eyes
Closed, closed
Sweet rain, frosty sunshine
Hail raging around, down on your face
Down, down
See and feel what isn't there
Complicated lies, floating words
Walk with fire, burn your soul
Burn, burn . . .
