Fire and Smoke
Keep caution
Amongst their souls
I will end in fire
But not with you
Not together
Keep vigilance
Through the darkness
I shall perish in flame
But you must go on
The others need you
Keep courage
In the battle
Glory I go through smoke
But you must stay
Your time is not yet
Keep returning
From losses
I see fire and smoke
But you see hope
Pass it on
You are their leader now
Keep love
Even in anger
I am trapped
Yet you are free
Motivate them
Soldiers
Or they will come to my fate
Keep your heart and soul
Even as you fall apart
I see death
While you see life
Give it to them
Or they will lose it
I see fire
Fire and smoke
Spiraling to the sky
The night is burning
I must close my eyes
The sky is crashing down
I see smoke
Smoke and fire
Burning the wind
The city is gone
I am broken
But you are not
Keep me
In your memory
Or you will break
