Fight Fire With Fire
Kansas · Complete Albums Collection [2011]
Let the light shine in
Cause it's letting me go
To your heart
It's time to get in
Oh there's nothing to lose
Cause it's already lost
In a runaway world of confusion
I'm not gonna take it
That's why I fight fire with fire
Oh I'm burning inside and my head is a crying
Fire with fire I don't wanna lose this baby desire
Standing alone, in a crowded room
You can feel the chill in the air
I'm shaking woah
I'm miles away I wanna cry out loud
I'm gonna fight 'til the end
I wont let it take me alive
And you're gonna fight fire with fire
Oh I'm burning inside and my head is a crying
Fire with fire and i don't wanna lose this baby desire
Fire with fire oh I'm outta control and I want you to know
Fire with fire I'm never gonna lose this baby desire
Fire with fire Oh I'm burning inside and my head is a crying
Fire with fire I'm never gonna lose this baby desire
Fire with fire I'm under control and I want you to know I'm fighting
Fire with fire oh oh ohhh oh oh
Fire
