Into the night
My long suffering friend
We'll be reborn again
Right here where everything endsFace to the sky
A trail of smoke in the air
Pass into emptiness
New life's awaiting you thereSlave to some wretched old
Imagination of yesteryear
Now all that grows in the skulls
Of the living are flowers of fearThe morning red
A sun-god calling you back
Down through a thousand years
White embers whistle and crack
Await the dawn with her kiss of redemption,
My firebird!
You were the queen of the souls of all men
Before there was the w-o-r-dThe morning new, the morning red,
The fiery promise
Mad swirling smoke wheels round her head
Dedication to the queen of souls, her lost disciples
And when the fire's work is done
Our time to be rebornBy pagan streams
A wind whips the leaves from the trees
And it is revealed to us
That we are dreams within dreamsBorn from some wretched
Old imagination of yesteryear
Now all that grows in the skulls of the living
Are flowers of fear
The morning new, the morning red,
The fiery promise
Mad swirling smoke wheels round her head
Dedication to the queen of souls, her lost disciples
And when the fire's work is done
Our time to be rebornThe morning new, the morning red,
The fiery promise
Mad swirling smoke wheels round her head
Dedication to the queen of souls, her lost disciples
And when the fire's work is done
The phoenix now reborn
