Fight fire with fire There's a hole in the wall With a light shining in And it's letting me know to get up It's time to begin Oh there is nothing to lose 'cause it's already lost In a runaway world Of confusion I'm gonna take it (chorus) That's why i fight fire with fire Oh i'm burning inside and my heart is a-cryin' Fire with fire I don't want to lose this flamin' desire Standing alone In a crowded room I can feel a chill in the air I'm shakin' I'm miles away I want to cry out loud I want to fight till the end I won't let 'em take me alive (chorus) And you know i'll fight fire with fire Oh i'm burning inside and my heart is a-cryin' Fire with fire 'cause i'm never gonna lose this flamin' desire Fight fire with fire
