Cardowan is a suburb of Glasgow, in North Lanarkshire, Scotland situated on the north-eastern outskirts of Glasgow, to the south of Stepps. The oldest documented reference to Cardowan comes from The Charters of David I of Scotland regarding the lands around Cardowan, Easter Cardowan, and Cardowan Muir which approximate the current Forestry Commission Cardowan Moss lands, and the current location of Cardowan.
Cardowan which grew around Cardowan Colliery, Garnkirk Fire-clay works, and clay mines in the immediate area. Cardowan's location proximity to Glasgow has been key to its expansion over the years, which has seen the former colliery site being transformed into a large scale residential development.

Another day try to stand up straight;
keep the world from draggin' me,
down’; fight the flames that feed
the fire, but my mind keeps spinnin'
around. Holding on to what You
said, cuz I know Your words are
true; only way to win this fight is
to keep my eyes on, You
CHORUS
Fire and Love, the two extremes
that we live between. Fire and
Love, there’s more to life than the
eye can see.
Feelin' down, well I've been there
too; I know just how you, feel. A
winning hand from every side, it's
hard to tell what's real. Caught
between the two extremes, Feel
the pull from side to side. Trying
to run the easy road; just enough
to get you by.
BRIDGE:
Oh Lord, I know You've got the
answers; Oh Lord, I know You are
the Way. Oh Lord, I know You
are the Answer, Oh Lord, I need
You, everyday.
