Committed to the Fire

                                                 

Like the sea to the foam

Like the foam to the shore

Like the shore to the land

I’m committed

I’m committed

I’m committed

Into your hand


I’m committed

I’m committed

I’m committed

Committed to the Fire

I’m committed to the Fire

I’m committed to the Fire


The time has come to walk the distance

No more compromise

No more resistance

No more questions, only trust

What the Fire destroys can only be dust

But will the Flame devour me?

Can I withstand the power in me?

This is the moment of truth!

Am I fireproof?


I’m committed

I’m committed

I’m committed

Committed to the Fire

I’m committed to the Fire

I’m committed to the Fire


I’ve been sanctioned by your name

By the purity of Flame

You’re all that I desire

I’m committed to the Fire

Starve my body ‘till it’s thin

Shave my head, anoint my skin

Take all the hope I had in men

All the comfort of the pen

Take this body it’s a fake

Come tie me to the stake

For I’m committed

I’m committed to the Fire


Yes I’m committed

I’m committed

I’m committed

Committed to the Fire

I’m committed to the Fire

I’m committed to the Fire


When I was off and wandering

Without a sense of shame

You stayed at home guarding the Flame

Now as you promised to forgive

Please throw me to the Flames and let me live

I know there’s only one way

I can no longer pretend

Since you once came down for me

Now I must ascend


I’m committed

I’m committed

I’m committed

Committed to the Fire


I’m committed to the Fire

I’m committed to the Fire
