  02. I'm On Fire (Dr. Henry 'The Poofter' Jekyll)

Oh nothings changed, men still arrange
to play a mean game with my world.
Oh nothings changed, men still exchange
their hearts and dreams fade, for mere gold.

Oh long hard days, I've labored for mankind
but they're blind with indecision.
And in their fear they turn away and they
refuse to see my vision.

And the vision burns like a shining star
now I'm breaking through, inside are two men
and both are you.

In the eerie twists and the spiral stairs,
found inside the mind, one there is evil
and one is kind.

And soon I know I'll hold the solution
then they will see.
And I know it's no easy thing but I think I can
bring it to be.

I'm on fire! (He's on fire)

One mistake and you can shake your life,
the evil side's to blame, Oh it brings shame
down on a good man's name.

I'm closing in on the answer now,
to split the light and shade,
I'll use no blade there, I'll use my brain.

Ten thousand men will love me forever
when I cross the line.
And the sound of my name will symbolize fame
for all time.

I'm on fire! (He's on fire)

And soon I know I'll hold the solution
then they will see.
And I know it's no easy thing but I think I can
bring it to be.

I'm on fire! (He's on fire)

When I unwrap the mystery my name will shine,
when men look back through history the claim is mine,
mine - mine for all time.

I'm on fire! (He's on fire)
