    LYRICS:
    When I’m holdin’ my guitar
    You make me feel like a star
    and I love each and every one of you
    You would understand
    If you were in my shoes
    You’d be scared and angry too
    Would you be friends with me
    Would you be scared of me
    If you saw me on the street
    Would you even care about me
    Give a shit about me
    Would you even notice me
    When I’m walkin’ down the street
    The heats on me
    The flame gets higher
    I’m too close to the fire
    I’m too close to the fire
    Are you o.k. with being quiet
    You say it all with your silence
    ‘Cause it’s not happening to you
    When you're the one they blame
    And your pictures in the frame
    You’re faced with the cold hard truth
    Should we burn it all down
    Let it fall to the ground
    I’ve got the devil at my door
    Like mississippi in ‘64
    The flame gets higher
    I’m too close to the fire
    Too close to the fire
    Hey, hey
    Too close to the fire
    Look out…
