Survivor - Burning Heart

Survivor · Other Songs - Survivor

Two worlds collide, rival nations

It's a primitive clash, venting years of frustration

Bravely we hope against all hope, there is so much at stake

Seems our freedom's up against the ropes

Does the crowd understand?

Is it a East versus West, or man against man

Can any nation stand alone?



In the burning heart, just about to burst

There's a quest for answers, an unquenchable thirst

In the darkest night, rising like a spire

In the burning heart, the unmistakable fire, in the burning heart



In the warrior's code, there's no surrender

Though his body says stop, his spirit cries never

Deep in our soul a quiet ember

Knows it's you against you

It's the paradox that drives us on

It's a battle of wills, in the heat of attack

It's the passion that kills

The victory is yours alone



In the burning heart, just about to burst

There's a quest for answers, an unquenchable thirst

In the darkest night, rising like a spire

In the burning heart, the unmistakable fire



In the burning heart, just about to burst

There's a quest for answers, an unquenchable thirst

In the darkest night, rising like a spire

In the burning heart, the unmistakable fire



In the burning heart, just about to burst

There's a quest for answers, an unquenchable thirst

In the darkest night, rising like a spire

In the burning heart, the unmistakable fire

In the burning heart
