Song Lyrics

"Fire Spirit"

by 16 Horsepower
Album: Low Estate

I can see clearly
From my diamond eyes,
I'm going to the mountain with the Fire Spirit
No-one will accept all of me
So the Fire...will stop

Up through the streets
And the gunfire of cars,
I'm going to the mountain with the Fire Spirit
No-one will take all of me
So the Fire...will stop

I will be cheating
The whole ritual,
I'm going to the mountain with the Fire Spirit
No-one will expect all of me
So the Fire...will stop

Someone will break out of the circle,
Someone will turn and burn a world
Someone knows a better cell
Where the old north wind blows through southeast hell, yeah

Invention was betrayed by the machine,
Promised like it was promised to me
I'm going up to the mountain to see
How the last thing, will set me free, yeah

I had to do something, I was wearing down,
I was going down

Why can no one ever touch a Fire Spirit'
Why can no one ever hold a Fire Spirit'
Why can no one ever feel a Fire Spirit'
I am going to the mountain,
I am going to the mountain,
I am going to the montain

I can see clearly
From my diamond eyes,
I'm going to the mountain with the Fire Spirit,
No one will accept all of me
And the Fire...will stop

With too much patience
And too much pain,
Going to the mountain with the Fire Spirit
To make amends for all of me
And the Fire...will stop.
