about

A song about the current world stage where people in positions of power make bad use of it, using lies, ego, and encouraging unnecessary wars, While the common people are caught in the cross fire. wind on a fire is a metaphor for what happens when you blow winds on a big fire, and it spreads out of control.

lyrics

Let's salute the mockery
Let's obey till we turn blind
In the air and on the ground
Them hands will
Twist and break the
Fair and kind

We've put up with this before
But our short term memory had been numbed
Now We turn our other cheek
Much to the satisfaction of the scum

It's a wind on a fire
The flames grow higher
It's a wind on a fire
You can't stop now
It's a wind on a fire
We're bound to burn and drop
Wind on a fire
Wind on a fire

Every corner of the earth
People searching for the truth
Well, the joke is quite on us
We failed to educate them in their youth

Now we gotta pay the price
For the moments that we
Thought
Dip our heads down in the sand
Pretend like they won't leave us here to rot

It's a wind on a fire
The flames grow higher
It's a wind on a fire
You can't stop now
It's a wind on a fire
We're bound to burn and drop
Wind on a fire
Wind on a fire
