Song Lyrics

"Children of Fire"

by Oh, Sleeper
Album: Children of Fire

We were born to fight
Here I stand, my breath is baited, waiting for the clouds to burst
I plead and scream, "Come what may!"
Dear God, lift me up from this ground of pain
The heat has reached a degree that's bringing me to faint
My faith and sweat have remained to contend the grave
Despite the sting, we're waiting until you bring our fate

We're singing
We are the children of fire
We are the lions
We stayed when all else deserted because we were born to fight and fight and fight

"I see you, tattered and bruised
You're the only ones who remained true
I hear your call through the thick of it all
You've waited so long for the rescue"

Our time has come
I'm sweating red
I'm sweating red
I'm sweating red
I'm red
I'm sweating red
I'm sweating red, red, red
I'm sweating red
I'm sweating red
I'm red
I'm sweating red
I'm sweating red, red, red

"It turns from blue, the sky comes unglued and falls to the earth as my answer
It's so far from rain...
The lot will feel pain as it singes their skin, but for you it will soothe"
What descends feels like heaven on my skin
Finally I am free to never breathe again
My body lifts from the ground I was rooted in, and I pass the spark as it races to the rest of them

We are the children of fire
We are the lions
We stayed when all else deserted because we were born to fight and fight and fight

We are the children of fire
We are the lions
We stayed when all else deserted because we were born to fight and fight and fight

Ignite
Ignite
Ignite the world
Ignite
Ignite
Ignite the world
Ignite
Ignite
Ignite the world
Ignite the world and let it burn
