I Don't Want To Get Burnt By Your Fire

I’ve been wrong more than right
I’ve been told I’m living a lie
I chase the thrill of being alive
I’d rather be blind to your light

CHORUS:  So send me to hell if you must
               Tell me I broke the rules you trust
             Warn me I don’t know what’s what
             And send me on my way

You preach about heaven with your hate
And you ask me to believe
But I don’t care what you say
Cause I know you don’t care about me

CHORUS

I’d rather be with the scum of the Earth
With the prostitutes and all those who play in the dirt
Just as long as I don’t spew your words
Just as long as I don’t use your Lord

CHORUS
Send me on my way
Away far away far away
Far away from your fire
Cause I don’t want to get burnt
I don’t want to get burnt by your fire
CHORUS
Send me on my way
