Vestals

In ancient Rome, the Vestal Virgins or Vestals (Latin: Vestālēs, singular Vestālis [wɛsˈtaːlɪs]) were priestesses of Vesta, virgin goddess of Rome's sacred hearth and its flame. The Vestals were unlike any other public priesthood. They were chosen before puberty from a number of suitable candidates, freed from any legal ties and obligations to their birth family, and enrolled in Vesta's priestly college of six priestesses. They were supervised by a senior vestal but chosen and governed by Rome's leading male priest, the Pontifex maximus; in the Imperial era, this meant the emperor.

 Struggling with Vesta? Become a better singer in 30 days with these videos!

You cast your own regard into a callous life
To give it warmth. To give it love; a candlelight
Selfless spirit races, commands, and even sustains
Content with dignity and hearth, you start a new day
And so you pour your heart into a new horizon
It sets. It sleeps; incites to start again

It's a new day
Open up your heart
Forgive. Inhale
Breathe into the stars

Why go starve yourself of peace
Cure the world of disease
Become the anomaly
Cheat your retribution
Don't become like other sheep
Take hold to honesty
Eyes open, yet trapped in sleep
Become the solution

And like the phoenix rises from the ashes
You wake from comatose
The world; it's new, it's dark, it's crass
An Earth that no one knows

It's a new day
Open up your heart
Forgive. Inhale
Breathe into the stars

Inside your heart, you're capable of complete control
Push your limits. Become what you thought impossible

You pursue your inner entity: serenity
Seek clarity
You exist inside infinity of everything
Snuff out deceit

Create a life of meaning from selflessness and reverence
To clean the past of its mistakes

It's a new day
Open up your heart
Forgive. Inhale
Breathe into the stars

Inside your heart, you're capable of complete control
Push your limits. Become what you thought impossible
