Ordeal by Fire Lyrics


Ordeal by fire, death takes a grip when there's no one around

Forward in fear, waiting alone for the final command

Faced by a trial that takes me away to the limits of pain

I fear the task that I am to face, won't let me come back again

Flame that burns in the sky

Knows I prepare to die

Know that I face them alone

One of the many heroes

Flame that burns in the sky

Knows I prepare to die

Know that I face them alone

One of the many heroes

Sent by the king, alone to return for the flame that gives him the power

Guarding the door of death, I will return within the twenty-four hours

Stealing the flame from the keeper who guards with all its evil reserve

Run for my life, return through the hell, if only I have the nerve

On through the forest of light

On through the caves in the night

Until I can reach the domain

And then I return with the flame

On through the forest of light

On through the caves in the night

Until I can reach the domain

And then I return with the flame

Slaying the beast who's guarding my prize, that it tries to deny

Running back to the kingdom of men, a warrior fearless and high

Facing a welcome fit for a king, I come back in proud victory

Power in my hands, I now realize that the true king is me

Ruling the land by the sword

Power in my every word

The flame of the gods is held high

Immortal, now I'll never die

Ruling the land by the sword

Power in my every word

The flame of the gods is held high

Immortal, now I'll never die
