Lyrics As I Lay Dying

As I Lay Dying

Shaped by Fire

The wise before me chose to refine themselves

Melt away their shortcomings by enduring trials

A process we will all undertake

Even if we try to prevent change

Face it before you are pulled in

Face it while it's still within

Like iron shaped by fire

We aren't born this way

Shaped by fire

We are reborn through pain

We aren't born

We aren't born this way

We are reborn

We are reborn through pain

Though I too have endured fire

I wasn't wise enough to ignite the flame myself

But carried enough fuel for a flicker to excel

Face it before you are pulled in

Face it while it's still within

Face it before you are pulled in

Face it while it's still within

Shaped by fire

We aren't born this way

Shaped by fire

We are reborn through pain

We aren't born

We aren't born this way

We shall reborn through pain

Shaped by fire

We aren't born this way

Shaped by fire

We are reborn through pain

Through pain

We shall reborn

We all reborn through pain

The time has come

To watch the fire grow

Find new things to throw in

Don't let the flames get low

I've grown used to the heat

That makes me reevaluate

What I carry with me

And what should be thrown away

Face it before you are pulled in

Face it while it's still within

Like iron shaped by fire

We aren't born this way

Shaped by fire

We are reborn through pain

We aren't born

We aren't born this way

We are reborn through pain

Shaped by fire

We aren't born this way

Shaped by fire

We are reborn through pain

We shall reborn

We all reborn through pain
