Fire Of Unknown Origin

See them standing in the foothills
 waiting for the kill
On wings of fear the terror sweeps
 into the city beat


To defend,
 this is the pact
But when life's scorned
 and damage done
To avenge,
 this is the pact


On wings of vengeance
 Taarna finds them
death for barbarians


To defend,
 this is the pact
But when life's scorned 
and damage done
To avenge, 
this is the pact


Flying over the oasis
 she is captured
 and they pull her down


Feeling pain
From the air
Close my eyes (ah)
And I am there
I feel I'm falling down in a deep dark pit


Put him down, the soldiers said
I'll put an arrow in his head
But the bird flew off instead
To save his master on his back she fled


Her time has come


Riding the bird, high in the saddle
She gets a chance to fulfill the pact now
As their leader swoops from the clouds
She sticks him with the sword, then she throws him down


The enemy shrivel and die
The enemy shrivel and die
To defend
This is the pact
But when life's scorned
And damage done
To avenge
This is the pact
