Can you feel the silent cries 
Of a soul in need 
Underneath the city lights 
Their altars in the street 
Through the walls I hear the sound 
Of a beggar's plea 
Looking for salvation from 
The altars in the street 

And it's so sad 
People driftin' away 
On a concrete sea 
It's too bad, faded lives 

Burn, won't you burn in me 
Eternal flame 
Won't you light my name 
Burn in me 

If God is "Grace" then "Bless the child" 
Who's left alone tonight 
Set him free, free to fly 

Cause it's so sad 
People wastin' away 
In such a subtle display 
It's too bad, sacred lives 

Though you fight 
Still you lose 
Everything you once held on to 
And I know, yeah I know 
Sometimes you hurt 

Oh, burn, won't you burn in me 
You're my eternal flame 
Why don't you light my name 
Burn, burn, burn
