Vermelho no céu
Fogo nas estrelas
Fogo na prisão
Vermelho no mar que se coloriu
Esperar, mostrar o fim da prisão
A paixão veio incediar
Matar a dor
Guia nas paredes guia nos porões
Rubra flor que cresceu nor ares
Para derrubar os muros
Cantar a vida
Sonhar o mundo
Abrir os corações
Vermelha paixão
Essa luz primeira
Que nos ascendeu
Rebelião
Libertação
Fogo na prisão
A paixão veio incendiar
Matar a dor
Guia nas paredes guia nos porões
Rubra flor que cresceu nos ares
Para derrubar os muros
Cantar a vida
Sonhar o mundo
Abrir os corações
Vermelha paixão
Essa luz primeira
Que nos ascendeu
Rebelião (rebelião)
Libertação (libertação)
Fogo na prisão (fogo na prisão)
Rebelião (rebelião)
Libertação (libertação)
Fogo na prisão (fogo na prisão)
