Name: Fire's Been Lit
Duration: P00H03M03S
Description: I set out this week to not only write a potential Mystery Dates song, but a song that we could use as a set opener. There's nothing particularly deep about this tune, but as a party-starter, I'm pretty pleased. Might be my favorite MM3 song in months.

lyrics

stand down
guns drawn
can't get
your heat on
defenses
exploded
eyes locked
and loaded
ain't no walls between us
closer everyday
so come on, gasoline us
ain't no time to play

swing, hit
the fire's been lit
smoke going up and I
ain't goin' quit it
any minute now you're gonna
realize
I wanna burn this thing to the ground
hard luck
the match been struck
you never saw it coming
and your feet got stuck
fire's been lit and you can't go back
go on and gimme everything that you got

you know
I know
this ain't
no free show
stand up
move down
thrill me
uptown
shake your hips and move me
make me wanna stay
make me righteous, prove me
show me how you pray

swing, hit
the fire's been lit
smoke going up and I
ain't goin' quit it
any minute now you're gonna
realize
I wanna burn this thing to the ground
hard luck
the match been struck
you never saw it coming
and your feet got stuck
fire's been lit and you can't go back
go on and gimme everything that you got
