Firedancer
The drums beat,
 The harps sing
 The flutes trill
 To the fire dancing
 The Firedancer
 The middle of the circle
 Shrouded in mystery
 Anointed by flame
 Dancing fluidly, her body sway,
 She feels the burning deep within her
 Feels the burning shame
 For the Firedancer
 In the midst of the greatest misery
 The only one the flames will answer
 The only one with heart so fiery
 For the dance of Flames
 Whispered by the tongues of fire
 Spat by the sparks
 Gets the blood boiling
 Leaves the Dancers skin with marks
 For that is the curse of the Dancer
 The one so beautiful and young
 The fire growing like a cancer
 By the fire she has been stung
 Chosen by her beauty
 Chosen for her heart
 Chosen for the soul within
 Chosen to be torn apart
 For the one with the Soulfire
 Is the one, the Pyro Queen
 Dancing for me e’remore
 Forever locked with flames.
 For the one with the Heartflames
 Is the one, the Firesinger, the Unseen
 Hating her fate e’remore
 Forever dancing with flames
 Marked with the crown of Fire
 Wielding the awesome Swordflames
 They are coupled with her soul and heart
 Taking on her titles, her names.
 The curse, the song, the dance, the wrong
 She dances for the king now, dancing forevermore
 Listing to her sobs, he is never forlorn
 Always shouting for his Queen to dance faster
 Until the flames devour her and her hated Master.
