How does a candle keep on burning
Wind blowing in its ears
How does a river see where it's flowing
Eyes watering, vision blurry
Just like a girl can keep on running
Fire licking at her heels
Speaking a prayer that only she knows
I will never yield
She walks the lands looking for freedom
Her lungs, they breathe in ash
To bring back life to the fallen kingdom
An angel of death by her side
Two worlds collide
Once a hunter, she will be a prey
Cause ruling comes with a pay
Speaking a prayer that almost died
I will not be afraid
When she cries her skin is in steam
From the fire within
Kept in a cage made of iron and grief
With memories and a long-forgotten dream
An animal that never belonged
A power that cleans and mends
Speaking a prayer that makes her strong
To whatever end
They answered her call right before the fall
And came to pay their debts
For she has saved them all long ago
A killer and healer at once
Fire bringer
A queen who was promised
A lamb to be slaughtered
She wouldn't go quietly
She punished the gods
And the dark old queen
For us to live in peace
Together we say a promise of old
We fight for a better world
