Ashes on the ground Smoke fills up the sky I'm on the battlefield, covered in the mud Lord knows where I've been Through the thick and thin I had to learn to swim just to stay alive And it's funny how fast Everything can change How this little boy grew up and became a man I was running with the Devil Reaching for the highs I was a soldier of fortune who gave it all And only for tonight For one last time I look into your eyes I feel the flame inside my heart grows wild The memories, the melodies I'm here And I'm ready I left my home town I couldn't settle down I was drifting on my own through a wasted land I've never known how To go along with the crowd Instead of following the rules I break them, oh I walked through the fire And I fought like a lion I was dying to find My way to the other side I walked through the fire I was searching for light In the deepest night And made it out alive I've been waiting for this all my life Now this battle cry goes out tonight I'm walking through the fire I don't need your alibis I'll show the bleed in broad daylight I'm walking through the fire Ashes on the ground Smoke fills up the sky I walked through the fire And I fought like a lion I was dying to find My way to the other side I walked through the fire I was searching for light In the deepest night And made it out alive Walk through the fire Walk through the fire My way to the other side Searching for light In the deepest night And made it out alive
