[[ NOTES: ]]

Here's another original piece that has been released for about a year, now! It's not quite as polished as "Daughter Of The Moon" -- I view this one as more of a demo for a greater vision, and as such I hadn't posted it here. Since it was recently re-released on iTunes and Loudr, though, I thought I'd share it!

This song is greatly inspired by Azula's storyline in Avatar: The Last Airbender. It's a depiction of a desire for control and dread at the thought of being viewed as weak -- something I'm sure many of us can relate to sometimes. This one's a tribute to the fire and the fear in all of us.

Thanks for listening, and if you'd like to download the MP3, please feel free to support my music by getting the song on iTunes, or Loudr if you'd like to give more to my craft! Hope you enjoy! :) x

[[ LYRICS: ]]

Love is patient, love is kind

Love will make you lose your mind

Nothing ventured, nothing gained

But do you want to go insane?

All I want to do is win

So tell me, is that such a sin?

If you let go of control

Then it will overtake your soul

There's a beauty in fear

It is much more sincere

So transparent and clear

There's no lie

So I'll do it my way

You won't lead me astray

When the night turns to day

I will rise

I'm a soldier through and through

Yes, I do what I have to do

I am anything but weak

The thunder trembles when I speak

All I want is to be great

So tell me, what is there to hate?

Fire and fire will collide

I will not let you break my pride

There's a beauty in fear

It is much more sincere

So transparent and clear

There's no lie

So I'll do it my way

You won't lead me astray

When the night turns to day

I will rise

I am broken I am lost

Oh, was it really worth the cost?

Stood too closely to the flames

And now I'll never be the same
