lyrics

My name is firebrand
And I’m bulletproof
I can’t hear your words
Over the sound of my roaring blaze

Do you toe the line?
will you join me on this climb?
I’ll make your castles move
my spirit's running high
This the start and I have no apologies
To give to thee

Gonna make you all see
that I was right all along
The rules don’t apply
To all the rising stars and the fever dreamers

Have you got the stones, to brave this bitter world?
Can you hear that rolling wheel, crushing another soul?
Alone, we feel, as the winter snow starts to fall
Down, again.

The devil our back won’t break
Fulfillment is our phantom pain
Is it ever enough for you? Won’t you help me see this through
The reverie of all my years snuffed out

Time doesn’t wait
It’s passing ya by
it feels too late
To turn this sinking old ship around

Is that me in the mirror?
Have I grown into this fool?
They told me that it’d be different,
They sold me a different world.
And the dream is gone
There’s nothing left to love,
But this cold dark grave.
