I was walking, I was talking, I was alive
Pushing through the pictures, looking for a forest fire
Every day I saw you but I never felt that sure
I got stones in my eyes and I couldn't take a forest fire.

Black rat swing out, the first hit that I ever saw
Watching all the cameras, everything for that girl
Twenty-seven years and then she got that paralysed
I got stones in my eyes and I couldn't take a forest fire.

Later than the talking, nothing I could ever see
Pushing through the pictures, it hasn't happened recently
Have to stay careful, keep my eye aimed on you
Stones in my eyes and I couldn't take a forest fire.

Always found them talking, never knew I was alive
Pushing through the pictures, trying to find a fire
Everyday I saw you, looking for the love I lost
Stones in my eyes and I couldn't take a forest fire.
