Audioslave - Original Fire lyrics

The original fire has died and gone
But the riot inside moves on
The original fire has died and gone
But the riot inside moves on

The original fire has died and gone
But the riot inside moves on
The original fire has died and gone
But the riot inside moves on

With a pen in one hand, taking a stand
Drugged on kerosene
84 and 5 would find us something to believe
Right or wrong with dirty hands on wires
Singing songs in discord choirs
Screaming in Braille
No temptress prize could ever
Yield anything so real

The original fire has died and gone
But the riot inside moves on
The original fire has died and gone
But the riot inside moves on

Golden soldiers born much older than
They'll ever live to be
Diving into a sea of hands
In a long forgotten city
Here the rain falls forever after
And the swinging vines hang dead in rafters
Blood rush to your head
Induces laughter endlessly

The original fire has died and gone
But the riot inside moves on
The original fire has died and long gone
But the riot inside moves on

Can't explain it, it was something to see
Can't contain something ever real, ever real
Ever real
Can't explain it, it was something to see
Can't contain something so ever real
Ever real ever real

The original fire has died and gone
But the riot inside moves on
The original fire has died and gone
But the riot inside moves on

The original fire has died and gone
But the riot inside moves on
The original fire has died and gone
But the riot inside moves on
