I look into it and it's black.
Why can't I feel?
My skin should crack and peel,
I want the fire back.
Now, through the smoke she calls to me,
To make my way across the flame,
To save the day or maybe melt away,
I guess it's all the same.
So, I will walk through the fire,
Cause where else can I turn?
I will walk through the fire,
And let it - -
Spike: The torch I bear is scorching me,
And Buffy's laughing I've no doubt.
I hope she fries,
I'm free if that bitch dies!
I better help her out...
Sweet: Cause she is drawn to the fire,
Some people never learn.
Spike: She will never learn,
Spike and Sweet: And she will walk through the fire,
And let it - -
Giles: Will this do a thing to change her?
Am I leaving Dawn in danger?
Is my slayer too far gone to care?
Xander: What if Buffy can't defeat it?
Anya: Beady Eyes is right,
We're needed!
...Or we could just sit around and glare.
Anya, Giles, Tara, Willow, Xander: We'll see it through,
It's what we're always here to do,
So, we will walk through the fire...
(Buffy and Tara's following verses overlap.)
Buffy: So one by one, they turn from me,
I guess my friends can't face the cold,
But why I froze,
Not one among them knows,
And never can be told,
Tara: What can't we face,
If we're together?
(These three parts are sung mostly in unison.)
PART I
Anya: She came from the grave much graver,
Spike: First, I'll kill her, then I'll save her,
Tara: Everything is turning out so dark,
Spike: No, I'll save her, then I'll kill her.
Willow: I think this line is mostly filler,
Giles: What's it going to take to strike a spark?
PART II
Buffy:
Going through the motions,
Walking through the part,
These endless days are finally ending in a blaze,
PART III
Sweet: So one by one, they come to me,
The distant redness as their guide,
That single flame,
Ain't what they had in mind,
It's what they have inside. She will come to me.
Buffy, Anya, Giles, Willow, Xander, Tara: And we are caught in the fire,
At the point of no return,
So we will walk through the fire,
And let it,
Burn,
Let it burn,
Let it burn,
Let it burn!
