Firestarter Lyrics

As a child

I learned to hide

If anyone saw me they'd say

She's just shy

All the while

No one could see

I was sending smoke signals

Through the trees

One day these embers

Would spark a blaze

I've been playing with fire

As an older girl

I learned to survive

Could make myself disappear

And stay real quiet

All the while

No one could see

I was sending smoke signals

Through the trees

One day these embers

Would spark a blaze

I've been playing with fire

I've been playing with fire

My whole life

When the embers caught

The flames went wild

And the fear caught fire

While I stood there stunned

'Till I laid in the ashes

So proud of what I'd become

I am the phoenix

I am the flame

I am the phoenix

I am the flame

I am the phoenix

I am the flame

Burn it, burn it, down again
