Firedancer Songtext
von Son of the Velvet Rat

You can′t be with the dead and the living
& make a bed in the middle of nowhere
Try & bridge that gap in your dreams
In the long long night
The city's a permanent rumble A subtle quake and a distant drone
The seasons have names
But they all look the same
Black pearls on a thread

I′m a good son and my father's a firedancer
When I'm done with the fire I′ll dance the ashes away
I say who am I to deserve this but I get no answer
But I′m a firedancer too – I know anyway


I remember the frail green of spring
& it makes me cling to the future
Like a bird of passage left behind
Clings to the wind
