Fire In The Sky
Ozzy Osbourne · No Rest For the Wicked
So it's no wonder that he grew up to be so wild
So he protected his feelings in walls he imagined
But castles crumble exposing the frightened child
Fire in the sky,
Can't you see that all my castles are burning
Fire in the sky,
Won't you help me now my castles are burning
In solitude he couldn't deal with his own existence,
The burning questions in the castles have still remained
God only knows how he searched in vain for the answers,
Now castles crumble exposing his naked flames,
Yeah
Fire in the sky,
Can't you see that all my castles are burning
Fire in the sky,
Won't you help me now my castles are burning
