Black Fire Lyrics

We come from...
Over the dark horizon sky
With twisted tales of sacrifice
To imagine or believe all the glory of the free

Hunting all day an endless cry
The things I've seen I can't deny
Sinners, saints all mixed in one
The dawn of time has begun

Why can't you see what they're doing to me?
Is it fair that I'm dying in vain...?

Once in a land of sacrifice
Now only valleys of demise
Shadows of a pale blue moonlight
Ride the waves of entity

Why can't you see what they're doing to thee?
Is it fair that you all die in vain?

Ride with the steel and the power of the sword
Stand up and fight now and forever more
Rise through the night sky with daylight's desire
To be free there must be black fire
Through the day and through the night
With dragons heart the warrior strikes
This is the day that they'll be known as my enemy

Why can't you see what they're doing to
What we believe in, we rise through the pain

Ride with the steel and the power of the sword
Stand up and fight now and forever more
Rise through the night sky with daylight's desire
To be free there must be black fire

Ebow: Herman

We come from distant lands, we travel so far
Can you see the bleeding scar?
The prizes of life we fail to win
Cause we doubt the power within

Solos: Herman/Sam/Herman/Sam

Why can't you see what they're doing to
What we believe in, we rise through the pain

Ride with the steel and the power of the sword
Stand up and fight now and forever more
Rise through the night sky with daylight's desire
To be free there must be black fire...
Black Fire!
