lyrics

So hard
It's getting hard to breathe
Pushed so close to breaking
Under the weight of destiny

Why wasn't it enough
To fall and learn to rise
To forge myself anew
A little harder every time

Have I prepared myself for death
Just to relive it all again
When
Oh when will it end

So what is destiny's demand
A burning sword or a sheltering hand
A sacrifice to save a land
Why must this all fall on one man

Shouting to the sky
From this high mountain peak
A dying world below
How much will they be forced to bleed

No answer back
Just storm winds blowing cold
Just dark and twisting clouds
Like great leviathans of old

And if this is the fate of life
To fight and die again and fade to time
Why even try

So what is destiny's demand
A burning sword or a sheltering hand
A sacrifice to save a land
Why must this all fall on one man?

Left with no choice I take it in
From the true source I seize Saidin
In raging torrents coursing wild
Inside I feel the power

A storm of light inside these veins
The endless tempest I've embraced
Enough to bring down earth and sky
Enough to bring an ending

Let the power flow
Stronger than I've ever felt before
We don't have to struggle anymore

Burning bright
I am the cleansing light
They named me dragon, now I bring the fire
Burning bright
The only end in sight
The dragon is reborn for the last time

Another battle
One more age
Trapped in the cycle
No escaping
So weaves the wheel forever on
Our endless fate unless I break it

The only way to bring an end
And spare us from this fate again
No light, no shadow, nothing more
The peace of a final silence

If we can't be saved
I can bring the mercy of the grave
If that's what it takes to end the pain

Burning bright
I am the cleansing light
They named me dragon
Now I bring the fire
Burning bright
The only end in sight
The dragon is reborn for the last time

So is this destiny's demand
Both burning sword and sheltering hand
The power to unmake a land
Ready to end it, but I can't

A voice inside that I can't quell
From a past life with truth to tell
What if we're here to try again
To strive on and make it better

Each time the burden ours to bear
Yet each time love and laughter shared
How could I be so lost to think
That the price is not worth paying

If they stand on strong
Who am I to tell them they are wrong
For them and beside them I'll fight on

Burning bright
I'm the redeeming light
I finally cleared the shadow
From my mind
In these hands
I hold a second chance
May the dragon ride again
On winds of time
May the dragon ride again
On winds of time
