Tori Amos - Flicker Lyrics

Flicker, yes flicker
There it is
A little less faint
A little more of your flame
Feel it warm your skin
Part of you trapped within
Shed a little light on this, help me see
Shed a little light on this, underneath the scarring from his defiling
Underneath the pain

Heroines, they are not born, they are made
A phoenix forms, her ashes rise
Expose their hell, break Satan's spell
Fire purifies, it's redemption time

Flicker, yes, Flicker
When neighbours and friends only give you their burning silence
Even with torches raised, part of you can't feel safe
Shed a little light on this, help me see
Shed a little light on this, please, and on those who excuse this act of violence
Choosing you to play

Heroines, they are not born, they are made
A phoenix forms, her ashes rise
Expose their hell, break Satan's spell
Fire purifies, it's redemption time
