Glenn Hughes
Burn (2004 Remix)
The sky is red, I don't understand
Past midnight, I still see the land
People are saying the woman is damned
She makes you burn with a wave of her hand
The city's ablaze, the town's on fire
The woman's flames are reaching higher
We were fools, we called her liar
All I hear is “Burn!”

I didn't believe she was the devil's sperm
She said, “Curse you all, you'll never learn!
When I leave, there's no return.”
The people laughed till she said, “Burn!”
Warning came, no one cared
Earth was shaking, we stood and stared
When it came, no one was spared
Still I hear “Burn!”

You know we had no time
We could not even try
You know we had no time

[Instrumental Break: guitars 02:08-03:38]

You know we had no time
We could not even try
You know we had no time
[Instrumental Break: keyboards 03:56-05:02]

The sky is red, I don't understand
Past midnight, I still see the land
People are saying the woman is damned
She makes you burn with a wave of her hand
Warning came, no one cared
Earth was shaking, we stood and stared
When it came, no one was spared
Still I hear “Burn!”
