Lyrics

Intro

Mm-mm

Mm-mm-mm

Verse 1

Garden gates behind me glowing amber

I turned my back on the first dawn

Adam called my name through the fig leaves

I answered with a shadow and was gone

Pre-Chorus

Eden kept its roses

I kept my own thorns

Every angel's whisper

Was a chain I had to scorn

Chorus

I am Lilith

Free as falling

Free as the fire

That never touched me

I am Lilith

Unbound and burning

Hell is just a doorway

On my way to morning

Verse 2

Below the ground the rivers run in circles

Red water winding wall to wall

The salt kings built their towers of sorrow

And fed their hunger on my fall

Pre-Chorus

Prison wears a crown here

Glory wears a chain

I carved my name in basalt

And I will not bleed again

Chorus

I am Lilith

Free as falling

Free as the fire

That never touched me

I am Lilith

Unbound and burning

Hell is just a doorway

On my way to morning

Bridge

Crack the seal

Breathe the air above

Every soul I swallow

Is a wound I learn to love

Laughing while I'm weeping

Weeping while I'm free

Two rivers in my body

And both of them are me

Chorus

I am Lilith

Free as falling

Free as the fire

That never touched me

I am Lilith

Unbound and burning

Hell is just a doorway

On my way to morning
