Prometheus Still Burns (Epic Version) – DoctorViper Lyrics

Fire! It didn't ask permission

Fire! Did we steal it, or did it steal from us?

Stone against stone, the spark was born

Without God, without pity, only a hunger to exist

Orange and terror in hands that still tremble

A piece of the Sun that will never bow

We roast the flesh, we burn the traitor

We melt iron, we melt vows of love

We write hymns on the skin of martyrs

And we burn the books that dared to remind us

Fire! Cradle and pyre at the same time

Fire! Home that becomes violent exile

Fire! Cradle and pyre at the same time

Fire! Home that becomes violent exile

Fire does not judge

It obeys only the first touch

And the wind that comes to laugh at our illusion

Who holds whom in the infernal dance?

Is it we who walk or is it he who makes us burn?

Prometheus does not sleep

The ember still throbs in humanity's heart!

Prometheus does not sleep

And the last flame cries out

I am not finished yet!

Fire! Cradle and pyre at the same time

Fire! Home that becomes violent exile

Fire! Cradle and pyre at the same time

Fire! Home that becomes violent exile

We tame it like a river in a rushing current

We believe the banks will hold back its fury

But in the flame's eyes, the question burns alive

Who, after all, is the slave of this captive flame?

Fire! Cradle and pyre at the same time

Fire! Home that becomes violent exile

Fire! Cradle and pyre at the same time

Fire! Home that becomes violent exile

We dance in a circle singing of civilization

But the fire smiles quietly in the darkness

We are legs, voice, remorse, and a match in our pockets

The way it found to walk through the mad world!

Fire! Cradle and pyre at the same time

Fire! Home that becomes violent exile

Fire! Cradle and pyre at the same time

Fire! Home that becomes violent exile

Who holds whom in the infernal dance?

Are we the ones who walk, or is it the one who makes us burn?

Prometheus does not sleep

The ember still throbs in humanity's heart!

Prometheus does not sleep

And the last flame cries out

I am not finished yet

When the city falls, when the name turns to dust

When memory is ashes carried away by the wind

Only, will remain

A stubborn ember

Refusing to die

Like someone whispering hoarsely

I haven't finished telling your story yet

Fire! Cradle and pyre at the same time

Fire! Home that becomes violent exile

Fire! Cradle and pyre at the same time

Fire! Home that becomes violent exile

Prometheus doesn't sleep

Doesn't sleep

Doesn't sleep

The last ember cries out to the void

I, haven't, finished yet

And the fire smiles, Because it knows

We were never the owners

We are only, the way it walks

Who holds whom?
