blame fire
blame fire
for all your problems
all the world's problems
blame fire
that fire burning in your eyes
fire burning in your mind
that fire burning in your heart
hot fire burning
deep within your yearning soul
blame fire
for mankind's evolution
blame fire
for every revolution
fire incinerating everything
everything we love
everything we hate
everything including faith
every flaming fiery thing
blame fire
for burning up
this modern world
raging wild fire
what a resolute fate
blame fire
for rampant climate change
blame fire
for always taking
centre stage
all that political rage
blame fire
for revealing
reeling smoking life
blame fire
sparking embers
within each smoldering family
routine self-immolation
those adulterous
corruptible husbands
disruptable wives
reckless kids
playing with feckless matches
blame fire
for erupting earth
scorched ground
results of explosive fires
incinerating neighbourhoods
forests and grassland
once peaceful places
recurrent criminal arson
resurgent on an ashen heading
blame fire
for political strife
consuming combustible rights
blame fire
for fiery insurgents
wielding razor edged knives
warlords fanning flames
fueling impassioned tribes
blame fire
for infernal days and nights
blame fire
for God's sake
blame fire
for eternal heaven and endless hell
erupting fraternal fire
every flaming god
corrupting spark and blame
instructing untamed fire's universal swell
blame fire
for every place we haunt and dwell
blame fire
