NASCAR in the stocks
It just spun out of control
And now its on fire
Its burning and scorching
Can you call it a bum for sitting there
What if it exploded?

Under the pressure of knowing...
Just leave an edge and dive off the ledge
There must be a landing strip, or an "x", or something...
A huge burning fire should give a lot of light...
Death doesn't stand a chance
Burning crackle, crackle

The angels gather near
White shining robes and fire breath
Insert a little thread into me
Discover who I am
This insanity, your foolishness
Don't lie to me

And it all comes down to this
Choking and bleeding profusely
Or happily smiling
I don't have to beg you not to choke me
In Jesus name I command it!  
This burning me...  crackle, crackle

Praise the eternal reign, the Father; Jesus Christ; and the Holy Spirit.
