Painting with fire’s gonna burn your hand
Ice ‘n cool water, bet you’d understand

Vivid words erased with “never-minds”
Wild flames churn as the time unwinds

We’re from star ash and dust we’ll be
Glowing red embers foresee degree

Brushstroke light like feather in flight
Release your shine; it beams so bright

Icarus taught us to fly with patience
Slow our blaze and tame complacence
