Once in a while, I can see the fire, all alone, all alone
A dead man walking, a news man talking
Another lie, another lie
Once in a while, I can see the fire, all alone, all alone

All alone

Once in a while, I can see the fire, all alone, alone

Back into the light, back into the dark
It's a vicious circle, it's a vicious circle
It's a vicious circle

Once in a while, I can see the fire, all alone in a vacant room
Neon lights shine through the curtains
Portent my pending doom
Voices trapped in broken wires
Calling out but never clear
Move slow towards an image
Disappearing when I'm near

Once in a while, once in a while
Once in a while, I can see the fire, all alone, all alone
