lyrics

What you ‘ve created is not enough, you are the tree I’m the fire
I want it all and I can’t resist, a slave to my desire
You made the rules and I broke them all, I’m a nuclear blast
I will paint black the face of the sun, even if I turn to dust
It’s time to see, who you are, time to throw off this mask
Greedy, wild, stupid, vain, afraid, alone and damned

I fly alone, for the burning sun
It makes me blind, but I can’t return now
Fearless flight, I ride the winds
I swim in solar waves, you can control me no more

Your hand gave me life, your breath gave me soul, but I don’t need you anymore
Don’t ask me why, you made me your image, but now I’ m closing the door
Whoever you are, whatever you mean, you are the maid I’m the lord
I’m not your child, and you ‘re not my father, I’m cutting the umbilical cord
It’s time to see, who you are, time to throw off this mask
Greedy, wild, stupid, vain, afraid, alone and damned

I fly alone, for the burning sun
It makes me blind, but I can’t return now
Fearless flight, I ride the winds
I swim in solar waves, you can control me no more

I gave you breath, i gave you soul, i showed you the way
And gave you choice and a home to live
I entrusted the world to your care, gave you the chance to take a glimpse of heaven
Sing with the angels and live under the wings of my love
Instead, you raped my world, indulged in lust and the delusive lights of power
Allied with the legions of darkness
Wars, starvation, destruction, death
What have you done, what have i done?

I can fly, i can touch the crimson sky
Can you see me now?

I fly alone, for the burning sun
It makes me blind, but I can’t return now
Fearless flight, I ride the winds
I swim in solar waves, you can control me no more
