Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Death is my shadow, silent and sly,
Beside me it creeps, under the sky,
Following close with every stride,
Sometimes in front, it tries to abide.
[Chorus]
But it can never capture me,
For it is but ashes that never flee,
And I, I am the blazing fire,
Lighting the dark, ever higher.
[Verse 2]
Sometimes side by side, as if to speak,
Like an old friend, with a bond so unique,
Sometimes lurking just behind,
Whispering softly to the mind.
[Chorus Repeat]
But it can never capture me,
For it is but ashes that never flee,
And I, I am the blazing fire,
Lighting the dark, ever higher.
[Bridge]
With each dawn, anew I rise,
Brighter still under the fading skies,
Though the shadow follows, near and far,
I remain undimmed, a constant star.
[Chorus Repeat]
But it can never capture me,
For it is but ashes that never flee,
And I, I am the blazing fire,
Lighting the dark, ever higher.
[Outro]
Yes, it's just undying ash,
And I, endless light and flash,
On the stage of life, I fiercely play,
An elusive flame, in bright array.
[Verse 2]
Sometimes side by side, as if to speak,
Like an old friend, with a bond so unique,
Sometimes lurking just behind,
Whispering softly to the mind.
[Chorus Repeat]
But it can never capture me,
For it is but ashes that never flee,
And I, I am the blazing fire,
Lighting the dark, ever higher.
[Bridge]
With each dawn, anew I rise,
Brighter still under the fading skies,
Though the shadow follows, near and far,
I remain undimmed, a constant star.
[Chorus Repeat]
But it can never capture me,
For it is but ashes that never flee,
And I, I am the blazing fire,
Lighting the dark, ever higher.
[Outro]
Yes, it's just undying ash,
And I, endless light and flash,
On the stage of life, I fiercely play,
An elusive flame, in bright array.
[Verse 2]
Sometimes side by side, as if to speak,
Like an old friend, with a bond so unique,
Sometimes lurking just behind,
Whispering softly to the mind.
[Chorus Repeat]
But it can never capture me,
For it is but ashes that never flee,
And I, I am the blazing fire,
Lighting the dark, ever higher.
[Verse 3]
In the mirror's glance, a solemn frown,
Doubts and thoughts, they try to drown.
Yet in my chest, a hearty scoff,
For cynic's eyes too often doff.
[Pre-Chorus]
With every question, a sharpened wit,
Through life’s parade, alone I sit.
