Genesis - Feeding The Fire текст песни

Released as b-side of "land of confusion" single, 1986.

You are terrified by the smallest sound

Because you live your life in such a sheltered world

As do those who surround you

Well I have seen you stung by poisonous flies

And you suffer much too much from their bites

There you sit in your comfort watching other people get caught by the

Storm

Many a thing that used to be a secret

Has become so talked about

Not worth a second thought

Theres different kinds of secrets now

Times change, its not enough to say

It seemed a good idea a hundred years ago

You think its not your problem

It really doesnt matter at all

Every stone thats thrown must fall to the ground

But you dont give a thought to where they might come down

You are feeding the fire over which youll be roasted

Anywhere that they dont speak the same

In any place that they dont think the same

You think its not your problem

No no

You think its not your problem

It really doesnt matter at all

Oh...

Maybe its not your fate to be a leader of men

But you just leave it all to someone else and complain

You could be so much stronger, but it really doesnt matter any longer

Cos youre feeding the fire over which youll be roasted

Cos youre feeding the fire over which youll be roasted
