Rate Feeding The Fire
Artist : Genesis Song : Feeding the fire
Released as B-side of "Land Of
Confusion" single, 1986.
You are terrified by the smallest sound
Because you live your life in such a sheltered
world
As do those who surround you
Well I have seen you stung by poisonous flies
And you suffer much too much from their bites
There you sit in your comfort watching other
people get caught by the
storm
Many a thing that used to be a secret
Has become so talked about
Not worth a second thought
There`s different kinds of secrets now
Times change, it`s not enough to say
It seemed a good idea a hundred years ago
You think it`s not your problem
It really doesn`t matter at all
Every stone that`s thrown must fall to the ground
But you don`t give a thought to where they might
come down
You are feeding the fire over which you`ll be
roasted
Anywhere that they don`t speak the same
In any place that they don`t think the same
You think it`s not your problem
No no
You think it`s not your problem
It really doesn`t matter at all
Oh...
Maybe it`s not your fate to be a leader of men
But you just leave it all to someone else and
complain
You could be so much stronger, but it really
doesn`t matter any longer
Cos you`re feeding the fire over which you`ll be
roasted
Cos you`re feeding the fire over which you`ll be
roasted
