Lyrics:

They’re in the walls!
The rats, the snakes, the spiders wear smiles!
I hear them in the stone — their little plots, their wicked guile.
Tywin scratches in the dark,
Rhaegar sings of treason sweet —
My own blood dreams of my fall,
He feeds me poison in my meat!

My throne cuts me to remind me —
Iron remembers who is king.
They want my crown, my fire, my scream,
They want the bells... But I’ll give them ringing.
Ringing, ringing —
OF SCREAMS! OF FLAMES! OF SKIN THAT PEELS AND MELTS LIKE WAX!
Bring me the pyromancers.
Bring me the WILDFIRE!

Let him be king over charred bones!
(Burn Them All!)
Let him be king over cooked meat!
(Burn Them All!)
Let him be the king of the ashes!
(Burn Them All!)
Burn them all!
(Burn Them All!)

I want them dead, the traitors!
(Burn Them All!)
I want their heads!
(Burn Them All!)
Bring me their heads!
(Burn Them All!)
Burn all the traitors!
(Burn Them All!)

(Burn Them All!)
(Burn Them All!)
(Burn Them All!)
(Burn Them All!)

Pycelle drips, a creeping leech,
He bleeds me dry, I see it now.
Rossart sings to me in flame,
The dragon’s fire, the sacred vow.
They all wear other people’s faces—
The court’s a mask, a jest, a play.
But I SEE THROUGH THEM.
I see the WICKED.
I see the WHOLE WORLD BURNED AWAY.

Let the smallfolk scream, let the children cry!
They are ants! Cinders! Dust and flies!
I’ll light the city like a candle flame —
Let them all remember my name!
And all who plot shall feel my heat!
Let them all scream! Let them all bleat!
I am dragon king, the living god—
And fire is my loyal sword!

Let him be king over charred bones!
(Burn Them All!)
Let him be king over cooked meat!
(Burn Them All!)
Let him be the king of the ashes!
(Burn Them All!)
Burn them all!
(Burn Them All!)

I want them dead, the traitors!
(Burn Them All!)
I want their heads!
(Burn Them All!)
Bring me their heads!
(Burn Them All!)
Burn all the traitors!
(Burn Them All!)

(Burn Them All!)
(Burn Them All!)
(Burn Them All!)
(BURN THEM AAAAALLLL!)

(Burn Them All!)
(Burn Them All!)
I command it.
Only fire is true.
Only fire is MINE.
LET THEM BURN!

BURN THEM ALL!
