သီခ်င္းခ်စ္သူမ်ားသုိ႕

Fire In The Sky

The introduction to his heartache began as a child
So it's no wonder that he grew up to be so wild
So he protected his feelings in walls he imagined
But castles crumble, exposing the frightened child

Fire in the sky
Can't you see that all my castles are burning?
Fire in the sky
Won't you help me now, my castles are burning

In solitude he couldn't deal with his own existence
The burning questions in the castles have still remained
God only knows how he searched in vain for the answers
Now castles crumble, exposing his naked flames, yeah

Fire in the sky
Can't you see that all my castles are burning?
Fire in the sky
Won't you help me now, my castles are burning
Fire in the sky
Can't you see that all my castles are burning?
Fire in the sky
Won't you help me now, my castles are burning

Fire in the sky
Can't you see that all my castles are burning?
Fire in the sky
Won't you help me now, my castles are burning
Fire in the sky
Can't you see that all my castles are burning?
Fire in the sky
Won't you help me now, my castles are burning
