Embers rest

Burn the nest

Watch your step

As the image of innocence fades

Stay alive as the guardian star

Burns down to nothing

Is it right that the ones that you loved

Would leave you broken? (Heart rests)

Leave you broken? (Bleeding in your hands)

If you knew where a shooting star

Would streak the sky

Would you pray your life into her hands?

(Hear her whisper)

“Child, show me what you can do

And don’t forget what they promised you

Breathe the flames as they give you life

Walk the edge of the reaper’s knife”

Watch your step

As the image of innocence fades

Stay alive as the guardian star

Burns down to nothing

It’s only right that the ones you loved

Lie bleeding, broken (Hearts rest)

Bleeding, broken (Beating in your hands)

Here lies the memory

Of a child too weak to stand

In their place

A wraith of retribution

Making new demands

Clear my eyes

Find my way beneath the silver sighs

Guarded always by the shade of night

I’ve returned to weave your end

And finally shed my shackles

White dreams take the clouds away

In waking despair

(Flame, save me)

Fly to unimagined heights

With guide never named

(Flame, save me)

Bright flames flash before my eyes

Cast shadows away

(Flame, save me)

We’re all born in the fire, it seems

If only they could see me now
