lyrics

Oh come the morning when we children revolt
No early warning, no report from the border patrol
Just the winding hiss, a binding kiss, from my arrow and bow

I hear the song of every Mockingjay
Ally in chorus for this ending of days
And I'm not afraid, I'm not afraid, I'm not afraid
I will become the feast hunting the beast
Predator shall become prey

I fed my hunger to fire
Now I bear no weakness
Weakness is a ghost swallowed
Lean and hungering fighters
I'll eat your shadows
I'll eat your shadows
I'll eat them

I taught my fire to speak a new language
Words to wicks, every district's anguish
Let flame join flame join flame
Until it all burns, and the Capitol learns
That their era is over, over, over...

I fed my hunger to fire
Now I bear no weakness
Weakness is a ghost swallowed
Lean and hungering fighters
I'll eat your shadows
I'll eat your shadows
I will eat them whole

This house, it will ignite
We will rebuild it right

We fed our hunger to fire
Now we bear no weakness
Weakness is a ghost swallowed
Lean and hungering fighters
I'll eat your shadows
I'll eat your shadows
I'll eat your shadows
I'll eat your shadows
Your shadow's shadow
I'll eat your shadows
I'll eat your shadows
I'll eat your shadows
I'll eat your shadows
Your shadow's shadow
I'll eat your shadows
Your shadow's shadow
I'll eat your shadows
