[Intro — Distant Sirens, Jet Engine Ignition] You see that light in the sky? That's not a star. That's fire. And tonight... Gotham burns. [Verse 1] I watched the skyline Disappear in flame One building falling Then another came You built your city Out of steel and stone But every empire Has a weakness of its own Give me a match Give me the sky Give me a reason And I'll make it fly You hear the engines? You hear them scream? Welcome to my nightmare. Welcome to the dream. [Pre-Chorus] No walls can stop me. No roof can hide you. When the fire starts... There's nowhere left to run. [Chorus] BURNING GOTHAM! WATCH THE CITY TURN TO ASH! BURNING GOTHAM! FEEL THE HEAT! HEAR THE CRASH! I'LL LIGHT THE SKY! I'LL WATCH IT FALL! WHEN THE FIRE TAKES THE CITY... IT TAKES IT ALL! [Verse 2] Flames in the windows Smoke in the streets People are running Trying to escape the heat The Bat is coming. I know he is. But let him come. Let him see What fire really is. I've got the fuel. I've got the wings. I've got enough explosives To burn through everything. You call me crazy? Maybe you're right. But you can't put out What I've already ignited. [Pre-Chorus] Hear the engines roaring. Feel the temperature rise. Tonight the darkness Gets a little brighter. [Chorus] BURNING GOTHAM! WATCH THE CITY TURN TO ASH! BURNING GOTHAM! FEEL THE HEAT! HEAR THE CRASH! I'LL LIGHT THE SKY! I'LL WATCH IT FALL! WHEN THE FIRE TAKES THE CITY... IT TAKES IT ALL! [Bridge — Quiet, Distant Fire] They called me Garfield. Before the flames. Before the mask. Before the fire became the only thing I could see. Maybe I started the fire... Maybe the fire started me. [Jet Engines Ignite] But there's no going back now. [Breakdown — Massive Industrial Metal] IGNITE! BURN! FLY! DESTROY! WATCH THE SKY! WATCH THE STREETS! WATCH YOUR CITY! TURN TO ASH! NO MORE DARKNESS! NO MORE NIGHT! I'LL MAKE GOTHAM... BURN... BRIGHT! [Final Chorus — Massive] BURNING GOTHAM! WATCH THE CITY TURN TO ASH! BURNING GOTHAM! FEEL THE HEAT! HEAR THE CRASH! I'LL LIGHT THE SKY! I'LL WATCH IT FALL! WHEN THE FIRE TAKES THE CITY... IT TAKES IT ALL! BURNING GOTHAM! THE NIGHT IS ON FIRE! BURNING GOTHAM! FEEL THE HEAT GET HIGHER! YOU CAN SEND THE BAT! YOU CAN SEND THEM ALL! BUT WHEN THE FIRE RISES... EVERYTHING FALLS! [Outro — Flames, Jet Engine Fading] The fire... Never sleeps. Garfield Lynns. Firefly.
