Tower Burning
Lyrics by Haladir Vadin
Tune of "Burn" by Deep Purple

The sky is red, I don't understand,
past midnight I still see the land.
People are sayin' the Dragon is damned,
he makes them burn with a wave of his hand.
The myrddraal's a blaze, he is using balefire.
The Dragon's flames are reaching higher.
We were fools, we called him leader.
All he says is "Burn!"

I didn't believe he was Car'a'carn.
he said, "Curse you Lews, it's my head you'll learn!
When I kill there's no return."
The darkfriends laughed till he said, "Burn!"
Tarmon Gaidin came, no one played fair.
Earth was shakin', we stood and stared.
The Dark-one came no one was spared.
But the dragon said "Burn!"

Shai'tan killed the Aes Sedai,
we could not even fight.
Shai'tan killed the Aes Sedai.

Dragon killed the Aes Sedai,
we could not even fight.
Dragon killed the Aes Sedai.

Amyrlin is dead, we don't have a chance,
past doomsday I still see Rand.
People are sayin' the Dragon is mad,
he made her burn with a wave of his hand.
Madness came, no one cared.
the Tower shakin, Rand stood and stared.
When Rand came no one was spared.
All he said was "Burn!"
