[Verse] The cauldron bubbled The air grew thin He whispered words Let the magic begin The night held its breath The moon turned gray But power’s a beast that won’t obey [Chorus] Oh apprentice Oh apprentice What have you done Dancing with fire Now the fire’s won You reached for the stars But you fell through the sky Oh apprentice Oh apprentice Why did you try [Verse 2] His hands were shaking The book fell apart A spell for glory A fool’s false start The runes were twisted The lines unclear The shadows laughed loud The end was near [Prechorus] The candle flickered The ground did shake One wrong word That’s all it takes [Chorus] Oh apprentice Oh apprentice What have you done Dancing with fire Now the fire’s won You reached for the stars But you fell through the sky Oh apprentice Oh apprentice Why did you try [Bridge] The master warned But pride’s a curse A gift of magic can quickly reverse One flash of light One final breath The spell he cast became his death
