Lyrics:

Everything I need is out of reach these days
As life gets down to the wire
Not a single thing that I love ever stays
And don't get burned in the fire
One door opens and another one shuts
And slams in my face and it drives me nuts
I can't make right for the things I've done
I'm looking down the barrel of a gun
'Cause I'm on fire
I'm on fire all the time
I don't get tired, I just get higher
I stand defiant, defiant
You can't deny it of me
I stand defiant, defiant
No, I ain't lying, you'll see
I'll defy you
The next big thing has been gone
I'm here, I'm ready, no waiting
Got a foot in the door, gonna sing my song
While the music is playing
Remember, you thought I wouldn't last six months
But 50 years on, I haven't had enough
Been to hell and back, yeah, I called your bluff
And here I am, still going strong
'Cause I'm on fire
I'm on fire all the time
I don't get tired, I just get higher
I stand defiant, defiant
You can't deny it of me
I stand defiant, defiant
No, I ain't lying, you'll see
I'll defy you
Keep on swimming if you don't look back
Everything, it stays the same
I won't step into that river once again
I stand defiant, defiant
You can't deny it of me
I stand defiant, defiant
No, I ain't lying, you'll see
I stand defiant, defiant
You can't deny it of me
I stand defiant, defiant
No, I ain't lying, you'll see
I'll defy you
