You say you don't want to be the understanding one
Well you're so tired of givin' and livin' has just let you down
You just can't go on that way
Can you hear what I say
Well I don't want to be the demanding one
But I can't let you stumble through dreams that keep tumblin' down
It just won't work out that way
Can you hear what I say
No you can't fight fire with fire
No you can't live eye for an eye
No you can't fight fire with fire
You know you only get burned if you try
Now you don't have to feel like the abandoned one
But you're playin' a game and you don't even know all the rules
And it just won't work out that way
Can you hear what I say
No you can't fight fire with fireno you can't live eye for an eye
No you can't fight fire with fire
You know you only get burned if you try
All those lonely nights
Tell me who's to blame
Are you lookin' for the light
Have you still got the flame
No you can't fight fire with fireno you can't live eye for an eye
No you can't fight fire with fire
You know you only get burned if you try
