There may be nothing above the earth
There may be nothing beyond the sky
It might be just what we deserve
But it is me who will raise us high
In my eyes you see the sun
The flaming heart to bring the light
Open my chest - it has begun
The burning season will set it right
Through the darkness comes the flame
Shooting straight out of the heart
Scorching the chest from which it came
Let the burning season start
The sacrifice to bring new life
To light the darkness and the gloom
There is no trace of inner strife
I embrace my burning doom
In the darkness you will find
The light to signal and to start
Leaving my chest and life behind
The burning season took my heart
Life and light - all will renew
Barren lands will come alive
All prophesied and true
Yet the heart will not survive
Torn from the chest it glows so bright
Casting out darkness and decay
It brings the burning season's light
It brings the dawn of the new day
Through the darkness comes the flame
Shooting straight out of the heart
Scorching the chest from which it came
Let the burning season start
The sacrifice to bring new life
To light the darkness and the gloom
There is no trace of inner strife
I embrace my burning doom
In the darkness you will find
The light to signal and to start
Leaving my chest and life behind
The burning season took my heart
The burning season took my heart
