Lyrics

Feed the Flame
(Pattison-Reimer-Lewis)

Young people try so hard to turn their world around
But complicated pressures seem to wear a body down
They can?t believe the way things are
No one seems to care
And their parents just say
?Be patient you?ll get used to it?

Some people find themselves alone out on their own
Maybe they just lost their jobs or ran away from home
All they need is a helping hand
To make it through the day
But the people who should be
Helping walk away from them

Old people can?t be found they hide themselves away
From the world they helped to build
In their glory days
Out of sight and out of mind
Forgotten thrown away
As reward for all their work they?re made invisible

That?s when you feel that white hot pain
Burning in your brain
Makes you feel like you?re going insane
That?s the fire that feeds the flame
It always feels the same
Too damn hot to try to tame
That?s the fire that feeds the flame
