The fire's burning high So bright it blinds my eyes Relentless flames crawl up my thigh You can pray to the lord above As the flames grow higher You can grab a crucifix But I don't fear the funeral pyre Because I burn, I burn for you Bum for you Because I burn, I burn for you It's a wicked cross to bear Mordant fumes fill my lungs Ministers speak in tongues My work on earth has just begun You can send a preacher A true religious man All the bibles in the world Won't make him understand Because I burn, I burn for you Burn for you You know I burn, I burn for you It's a wicked cross to bear You can pray to the lord above As the flames grow higher You can grab a crucifix But I don't fear the funeral pyre Because I burn, I burn for you Burn for you Because I burn, I burn for you It's a wicked cross to bear You know I burn, I burn for you Burn for you Oh, yes I burn, I burn for you It's a wicked cross to bear
