Wings of Fire Theme Songs

8: Peril (edit)

So, after listening to Armor  by Sara Barielles, I had to change Peril's theme song. It just... it fits her so well. Yes, she wants acceptance, but she's a fighter.  She has an armor that lets her fight against everything people say to her. It may have been easy to bring her down once, but now, you're going to have to try a lot harder.

Let it begin, let Adam in

Step one: original sin

Under the leaves, Adam found Eve

Both of them found something sweet under the apple tree

Then it was over, roads divide

Step two: learning how to lie

Let me ask a question to present day---

How the hell did Eve end up with all the damn blame?

All the damn blame?

To all the dirty looks, the kitty-cat calls

To the ones who try to throw us up against the back wall

Let me tell you something you'll understand

Only the little boys tell you they're the big man

To all my sisters, and all our friends

We have to thank them, please

Strength means blessed with an enemy

All my, my, my, my armor comes from you

You make me try, try, try, try, harder---oh, that's all I ever do

Ever do

Oh, no no, my, my, my, my armor comes from you

You make me stronger, stronger---

Now hand me my armor!

Step three, I see

The unforgettable, incredible ones who came before me

Brought poetry, brought science

Sowed quiet seeds of self-reliance

Bloomed in me, so here I am

You think I am high and mighty, mister?

Wait 'till you meet my little sister

All my, my, my, my armor comes from you

You make me try, try, try, try, harder---oh, that's all I ever do

Ever do

Oh, no no, my, my, my, my armor comes from you

You make me stronger, stronger---

Now hand me my armor!

What you didn't do was bury me

But you didn't know I was a goddamn seed

You don't scare me, I am of the earth

So tired of your empire

Blind men only set the world on fire

Sad you can't see it

You brought the flame, here comes the phoenix...

You make me try harder, oh it's all I ever do, ever do

Oh, no no, my, my, my, my armor comes from you

You make me stronger, stronger

Hand me my armor!

All my, my, my, my armor comes from you

You make me try, try, try, try, harder---oh, that's all I ever do

Ever do

Oh, no no, my, my, my, my armor comes from you

You make me stronger, stronger---

Hand me my armor!

Hand me my armor, hand me my armor

Hand me my armor, hand me my armor!
