Firedancer Songtext
von Poets of the Fall

In the space between thought and wonder
Memory cannot pull you under
In the moment between breath and dying
You′re free, fearless, you're flying

It′s a new age, gotta make it up as you go
It's all the rage, gotta take it all in tow
You can't be living by the shreds
Or what you think you′re owed
Sage advice or sensory overload

Whatever the pressure
However your pleasure holds you captive to the treasure
No matter how the earth reverberates
You′re dancing with the greats
With the fools and their fates
For time, it never waits

(Crash the gates) firedancer, flame of life
(What remains) is a gamble, fall or fly
(Pay your age) and remember there's a why
You should always question the answer (question the answer)


Are you ready for your life to be laid bare?
And are you sure ′bout the proof by which you swear?
It's all the same, life′s a game for a name untarnished
By someone else's fear

Whatever they offer
However your wishes beckon harder than you reckon
The fire doesn′t dance to their dictates
And now you're dancing with the greats
Let the fools have their fates
For time never waits

(Crash the gates) firedancer, flame of life
(What remains) is a gamble, fall or fly
(Pay your age) and remember there's a why
You should always question the answer

In the moment between breath and dying
You′re free, fearless, and flying

(Crash the gates) firedancer, flame of life
(What remains) is a gamble, fall or fly
(Pay your age) and remember there′s a why
You should always question the answer
