A boy of fire rose from the earth
And a girl of water fell from the sky
And they thought “so long as we are together,
Neither of us shall die”
But then a tower of stone rose from the ground
And the girl of water was cast down
And into the earth her body did seep
As the boy of fire weep
Into a mighty inferno he did alight
To rise to the sky in a pillar of light
And he demolished that tower of greed
And in doing so had laid the seed
For from the ashes rose a man
With fiery flesh and a skeleton of sand
A coat of water to seal him in
A signal to all that this wasn't the end

A boy of fire rose from the earth
And a girl of water fell from the sky
And they thought “so long as we are together,
Neither of us shall die”
But then a tower of stone rose from the ground
And the girl of water was cast down
And into the earth her body did seep
As the boy of fire weep
Into a mighty inferno he did alight
To rise to the sky in a pillar of light
And he demolished that tower of greed
And in doing so had laid the seed
For from the ashes rose a man
With fiery flesh and a skeleton of sand
A coat of water to seal him in
A signal to all that this wasn't the end
