How did we get here, Peeta? An inch from death in this arena So far from District Twelve But we did manage to stay ourselves I hold out the berries for them to see Ready, on the count of three Guess we’ve reached the climax of this story Girl on fire’s going out in a blaze of glory CHORUS I’m more than just a piece in their games Girl on fire is more than just pretty flames And if I’m to die here, they will see Once and for all, they don’t own me They don’t own me x2 I’m more than the girl on you’re screen I am Katniss Everdeen My life not a board to play chess on I’m not some yielding little pawn I forgot we were all the same Began to hate the players and not the game And it took this baker’s son To show me what it truly means to have won CHORUS BRIDGE: As the berries leave my hand I wonder will this be the end That night on the rooftop I recall Guess we get to die as ourselves, after all CHORUS (soft)

Hey there Alec, I’ve got a message for you Something we all feel is overdue You fixation on Jace is getting old And a certain warlock likes you, or so I’m told Izzy told me you were gay But you’re single to her dismay You’re hung up on Jace, we know But you caught someone’s eye two books ago CHORUS: Hey, Alec Lightwood, can’t you see? You and Jace aren’t meant to be Alec Lightwood, get a clue Cause Magnus Bane’s in love with you We know you like the way he moves But you think you’re parents won’t approve Is it ‘cause he’s a guy, or he’s a warlock? You should probably tell your parents you like….boys? Jace thinks he loves his sister…um, ew! He’s got more important things than deal with you But someone else is on the side-lines, ready All the fan girls are screaming “JUST KISS HIM, ALREADY!” CHORUS x2

I was once a normal girl What I wanted most in the world Was to be like everyone else I was taught to hate myself (the way I was) My best friend turned sixteen One whole month alone until my surgery But Shay decided she was enough She’d rewired her brain to love herself When she left I thought she would fail Soon enough Special Circumstances was on her tail And me in their grip, I thought was a joke But as soon as I got there, my plans went up in smoke (my plans went up in smoke) For sixteen years, I had but one aim To lose myself and be the same But living by his side showed me A different way to see beauty But I made a big mistake Everything I touch I break Lost the best home I ever knew Because David said I was beautiful Good intentions pave the road to hell Tried to burn the locked so it would never tell But I failed at everything I tried I was alone in all my tricks and lies But somehow things have grown on me I’m not the same old Tally I was before that locket burned So many things I’ve lost and learned David taught me how to see The world completely differently We’ve discovered the secret, and thus… The fate of the world rests on us (The fate of the world rests on us) I know how what I have to do I’ll risk my life to know the truth For David, Maddy, Az, and Shay When the time comes we’ll have our day Because what you think and what you do Is what makes you beautiful No longer afraid of what lies ahead Because I now believe what David said

What do you do when your best friend’s a fairy? When you can call yourself a crime protégée? What do you do when no one understands you? And you’ve still barely reached puberty What do you do when despite your logic Your hormone levels now increase What do you do when you number one on the list Of most wanted by the fairy police CHORUS Mr. Fowl, don’t be foul about it Artemis, c’mon, don’t be so sad You’re diabolical, and well funded You’ve got the world in the palm of your hand What do you do when you can hack computers? That humans haven’t invented yet What do you do when an elf saves your life And you kiss her to repay the debt? What do you do when you believe in fairies? When you’ve got tons of doctorate degrees What do you do when you’re very good looking? And deep down you know Holly agrees? CHORUS You've got Butler beside you 'til the end of your days And Minerva..well she only shows up in book five But Foaly is there to run tech in the booth And Holly will keep you alive What do you do when you're an Irish boy With much too much time on his hands? What do you do when you're tempted with evil Will good be the motive of your plans? CHORUS

Smoke rises in the city of glass Oh how things have come to pass White figures in a fog of grey Such a beautiful sunrise lights such a dark day Swirling in the Idris sky Ashes of a Nephilim to young to die CHORUS Maxwell, Maxwell We bid you farewell But in our fight we cannot pause Even you, in death, still serve the cause Loyalty, courage and trust Ashes to ashes, dust to dust x2 Alec’s tear’s hidden by long black bangs Izzy’s cries drown out when the church bell rang Jace’s grief pushed down inside So nobody will see him cry Robert and Mayrse still too shocked to feel The absence of their son is just too real As the Glass City sky is choked With the soot and ash of Max’s smoke CHORUS Angel wings…carry you home x4 CHORUS
