Fire...I hold the mythic flame within my palm Fire...Wildly dancing in the still of night
This dream that fades before it soars A frozen lake of blood and guilt Abandon hope, who enter here My love has died so long ago
Cowards...You preached from temples made of flesh and bone Envy...She was the poison torturing your souls Gorging...Devouring killer gnawing at our scars Fury...A beast in bondage rotting in the ground
And my heart and my soul flee with the flames Once we were kings
Before your throne We tasted death For promised stars in skies we longed Yet stars don't shine, where darkness reigns May fiery hope deliver us
And my heart and my soul flee with the flames Once we were kings And the wind gently sings Of the lives we have lost But once we were kings
And as the fire sears our weary flesh The seven rays have lost their hold The slaves of yore rise with the smoke This reign shall fall and rise no more
Your wrath remains, your pleasure wretched A wayward child lost in the storm Forgotten feats return to haunt your doom I will not be the last to go
And my heart and my soul flee with the flames Once we were kings And the wind gently sings Of the lives we have lost But once we were kings...
