| Spike brings in one of Sweet's henchman who tells them that Dawn is being held hostage at the Bronze. To everyone's disapproval, Giles insists Buffy go alone. Buffy is pissed, and refuses Spike's help when he offers. |

| BUFFY |
I touch the fire
And it freezes me
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
Buffy's laughing, I've no doubt
I hope she fries!
I'm free if that bitch dies!...
(He loses his bravado and heads for the Bronze)
I better help her out...
|
| SWEET |
'Cause she is drawn
to the fire
Some people never learn
And she will walk
through the fire
And let it -
|
SPIKE
She will never learn
And she will walk
through the fire
And let it - |
| |
(Back at the Magic Shop, Giles is having second thoughts.) |
| 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 |
| ALL |
We'll see it through
It's what we're always here to do!
So we will walk through the fire
(They leave for the Bronze) |
| 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? |
ANYA |
She came from the grave much graver |
|
SWEET
So one by one
|
| SPIKE |
First he'll kill her
Then I'll save her |
|
They come to me |
| TARA |
Everything is turning out so dark |
|
The distant redness
as their guide |
| SPIKE |
No, I'll save her
Then I'll kill her! |
BUFFY
Going through the motions |
But what they'll find |
| WILLOW |
I think this line's mostly filler |
Walking through the part |
Ain't what they have in mind |
| GILES |
What's it going to take
To strike a spark? |
|
It's what they have inside |
| BUFFY |
These endless days
Are finally ending
in a blaze |
|
She will come... |
| SCOOBIES |
And we are caught
in the fire
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!
(Buffy kicks the door to the Bronze off its hinges)
|
to me! |
|
|
| SWEET |
Show time... |
