When the world is sand
And blood drips from your hands
And everywhere you look
You see gold dragons
When you fight with fate
And the ones you hate
Are the world's last hope
The rope tightens
I wanna bury the lies
And let the dragons fly
But with this pain inside
There's nothing I can hide
No matter what we learn
We blaze, blister, and burn
This is the life we lead
This is the life we lead
When you feel my heat
Look into my eyes
I'm wearing wings of fire
I'm wearing wings of fire
Don't get too close
To this blinding light
I'm wearing wings of fire
I'm wearing wings of fire
At the NightWing's call
The queens will fall
When the scales turn black
Back home they'll crawl
So they dug their graves
To hide their mistakes
You reap what you sow
As they no doubt know
Don't wanna let you down
But I'm held to the ground
Though this is all I do
Don't wanna lie to you
No matter what we learn
We blaze, blister, and burn
This is the life we lead
This is the life we lead
When you feel my heat
Look into my eyes
I'm wearing wings of fire
I'm wearing wings of fire
Don't get too close
To this blinding light
I'm wearing wings of fire
I'm wearing wings of fire
They say it's what I do
I say it's up to you
It's woven into me
I need to set you free
The world, it shines so bright
I wanna save that light
I can't escape this now
Unless you show me how
When you feel my heat
Look into my eyes
I'm wearing wings of fire
I'm wearing wings of fire
Don't get too close
To this blinding light
I'm wearing wings of fire
I'm wearing wings of fire
