[Verse 1]
Born into darkness in Saturn's sight
Riding the night like the wind
Ripping the heart from a world that is right
Treading the borders of sin

[Chorus]
Child of fire
The souls that are damned by the pain that you bring
Send you higher

[Verse 2]
Slashing destruction, your right hand sword ringing
To the ends of the earth you will fly
Conquering masses in wanton deception
Blood-red, your black flag waves high

[Chorus]
Child of fire
The souls that are damned by the pain that you bring
Send you higher
Higher
Higher
Higher, oh-oh-oh

[Guitar Solo - Chris DeGarmo]
[Bridge]
Look around, is this the end that you've foreseen?
The pain, the misery in us all
What was it that you knew? Will we one day learn it too?
And together, oh, build another way to the morning
Or will it ever come again?
You've poisoned all our hopes, we have nothing now
But what of the children? What has this done to them?
Oh damn you for the pain that they must feel
Yeah

[Guitar Solo - Michael Wilton]

[Verse 3]
The last hero standing, no time to turn back
He's listening, he waits for your call
The black barren plains reflect the hope of the same
For one only waiting to fall

[Chorus]
Child of fire
The souls that are damned by the pain that you bring
Send you higher
Higher
Send you higher
Higher
No
