Long distance runner
what you standing
there for
get up get out
get out of the door
you're playing
cold music
on the barroom floor
drowned in your laughter
and dead to the core
There's a dragon
with matches
that's loose on the town
take a whole
pail of water
just to cool him down
Fire
fire on the mountain
fire
fire on the mountain
fire
fire on the mountain
fire
fire on the mountain
Almost ablaze
still you don't
feel the heat
it takes all you got
just to stay on the beat
you say it's a living
we all gotta eat
but you're here alone
there's no one to compete
If mercy's a business
I wish it for you
more than just ashes
when your dreams
come true
Fire
fire on the mountain
fire
fire on the mountain
fire
fire on the mountain
fire
fire on the mountain
Long distance runner
what you holding out for
caught in slow motion
in a dash to the door
flame from your stage
has now spread
to the floor
you gave all you had
why you wanna give more
The more that you give
the more it will take
to the thin line
beyond which
you really
can't fake yeah
Fire
fire on the mountain
fire
fire on the mountain
fire
fire on the mountain
fire
fire on the mountain
