Believed him Recieved him And took the gift brought by him They followed in his wake My blood was the first to take My father learned his craft Thought this to be our life raft Promethean feather-clad Ash covered wings will be spread
Now..... See me burn Here He, Oceanus Before me I fear I stand to face I 'll drench my race The fire line Will end here With the death of mine.
They spoke words They sang songs The poets claimed we belong To their art Tear apart The chains that hold down my heart I'll break free So they'll see My father fell, did not flee My mother is flame-scorn And still they praise the ash-born.
Now..... See me burn Here He, Oceanus Before me I fear I stand to face I'll drench my race The fire line Will end here With the death of mine.
Now I can see me Know that I can't flee Now I will take this final flight Now you can see me Know I can 't flee thee Parish beneath the waves out of sight.
Her fire you worship The agony neglect The Phoenix dies in horrible pain Reaching much higher Drawn to the fire Icarus in earth-bound chains.
Now..... See me burn Here He, Oceanus Before me I fear I stand to face I'll drench my race The fire line Will end here With the death of mine. I stand to face I'll drench my race The fire line Will end here With the death of mine.
