Fire In The Twilight Lyrics
Hot on the run from the grip of the power game,
The man who leads the way, the man who leads the way.
Shell in it’s box from his home that they’ll never tame,
The man who leads the way, the man who leads the way.
He is burning, burning in the twilight.
He is burning, turning to face us.
He is burning, fire in the twilight.
He is burning, turning to lead us away, away, away,
Lead us away, away, away.
Taking a break from the role of the everyday boy,
The man who leads the way, the man who leads the way.
Is he for real or is he back to the old way boy,
Can he lead the way, oh can he lead the way.
He’s searching, but he’s lonely, and he’s hurting, but he’s only,
Waiting for a chance just in time to live a life.
Does he need ya, does he want ya,
Does he listen to what you say?
Is he only waiting for the simple way?
He is burning, burning in the twilight.
He is burning, turning to face us.
He is burning, fire in the twilight.
He is burning, turning to lead us away, away, away,
Lead us away, away, away.
The lyrics seem to point to a story about a man who is a straight-laced suit type sick of being in the rat race and deciding to get out of it for a bit and be himself. He's cutting loose and partying hearty, but deep inside, really what he wants is someone to love.
This is my favorite song off The Breakfast Club soundtrack. So upbeat, fast, and fun.
The Breakfast Club Is The Best Movie Ever... And What A Great Song To Play In The Scene Where They Run Around In The Halls... Yes a 17 year old kid can appriciate old 80's music... Great song... But Wang Chung... not so great haha...
This song is fun, I like how he talks because it's weird. And I like the weird electric keyboard beat.
