Bleeding Strings

The reigning king, high priest of the sonic fire

Baptizing the world with a roaring flame

Lord of the strings,

Born to sweep the world like a fifth wind,

Now gone, but echoing beyond forever

Burning with passion and with grace,

Every night you set the world ablaze

Millions who walked with you through the days

Forever will revere your name

Electric fire from your hands

Burned still on the night your last stand

Breathing life into the world

On the last stage lies a hero with a heart of gold,

Now a fallen warrior with wounds too deep to endure the cold

Your strings still weep as you're taken away too soon,

As you bleed on the strings now the strings bleed with you

With pride he dedicated his life

To keeping the spirit and the flame alive,

Preserving the craft with the power to light millions of hearts

Leaving behind a legacy -

Countless secrets of an art like sorcery,

Now the strings of your followers sing in your honor

Burning with passion and with grace,

Every night you set the world ablaze

Millions who walked with you through the days

Forever will revere your name

Electric fire from your hands

Burned still on the night your last stand

Breathing life into the world

On the last stage lies a hero with a heart of gold,

Now a fallen warrior with wounds too deep to endure the cold

Your strings still weep as you're taken away too soon,

As you bleed on the strings now the strings bleed with you

On the last stage lies a hero with a heart of gold,

Now a fallen warrior with wounds too deep to endure the cold

Your strings still weep as you're taken away too soon,

As you bleed on the strings now the strings bleed with you
