Play With Fire Lyrics by Lydia the Bard

2024

[Verse One]
Here we stand again as you try, challenge me
When will you give up and just admit defeat?
Really, it is just getting embarrassing
Watching history repeat

Cinder squaring up to an inferno
Dying flame and wildfire standing toe to toe
Brother just give up, why not return home?
My flames rise and yours has lost its glow

[Chorus]
Oh, my sweet brother, don't you know?
Please don't flatter yourself
You were never a player in this show
Like a child you never learn
This kind of power must be earned
Play with fire and you'll end up
Burned

[Verse Two]
Apple doesn't fall too far from the tree
When I fell to the root, you rolled out to sea
So tied up with your honor and morality
Give up the fight and drink your tea

Just the spitting image of our mother
Weakness running in your bones, you're just like her
Why should I be kind, why should I bother?
Those same eyes said I was a monster

[Chorus]
You can fear me just like her
I learned long ago
That you can drown if you don't burn hotter
Can't be hurt if you strike first
So I'll crush you to the dirt
Play with fire and you'll end up
Burned

[Bridge]
And so I'll burn so bright
A comet in the night
Casting out the light
Til there's none left

When you're raised in war
You either fight or run
A star will burn, that's all it knows
We don't hate the sun
In the end can I be blamed for all that I've done?

Blood thicker than water
I am a daughter
With fire running through her veins
I know what I'm made of
I'm what they're afraid of
The family sword, and you're the shame
So I'll be the devil, a demonic vessel
Bring out the brimstone, hellfire reigns
Hellfire reigns
Hellfire reigns

You cower, an ember in coals
Don't you know the extent of the power you hold?
The stars in your hand, sun at your command
We'll burn out this blight until only we stand
You're a sheep in the herd
A weak mind and weak words
You ignore those you serve
And you put the sheep first
So the field, we will purge
In the fire submerged
The impure will emerge
And we'll see them all
Burn!

[Chorus]
Oh, my sweet brother, take your turn!
In the game of war
There are no rules and there are no terms
Come on, now, show me what you've learnt
You trip and stumble while I blur
Watch out brother or you'll end up
Burned
