Ash on my tongue and steel in my fist (النسخة 2)

Intro

Hold the iron to your chest

Verse

Frost is crawling up my sleeve and into my bone

Every breath I take feels like it's been fought alone

Blood in my teeth and ash on my tongue

This is how we keep when there's nothing left to be sung

I've seen the sun rise over mountains where our banners fell

Watched as cities turned to dust beneath the enemy's bell

Pre-Chorus

Is this all that we have? Is this enough to carry us through?

Can I hold it in my chest when there's nothing left to prove?

Every scar here tells a story that I won't let die

I'll keep this fire burning till the sky turns black and gray

Chorus

Hold the iron to your chest

This is how we keep when the world forgets to breathe

Ash on my tongue and steel in my fist

We stand together where our fathers' ashes rise

Verse

Every word I speak is one that they took from me

I won't let it burn without a fight, not yet, not see

This isn't just about winning or losing in the end

It's every breath that still makes sense when there's nothing left to defend

Their drums are loud and their swords are bright

Pre-Chorus

Is this all that we have? Is this enough to carry us through?

Can I hold it in my chest when there's nothing left to prove?

Every scar here tells a story that I won't let die

I'll keep this fire burning till the sky turns black and gray

Chorus

Hold the iron to your chest

This is how we keep when the world forgets to breathe

Ash on my tongue and steel in my fist

We stand together where our fathers' ashes rise

Bridge

It's not about surviving. It's not even about winning.

It's every heartbeat after they try to take it from you.

I don't ask for mercy or a single inch of ground.

I just want this fire burning till the world spins round.

So hold your iron up and let the ash fall slow

Chorus

Hold the iron to your chest

This is how we keep when the world forgets to breathe

Ash on my tongue and steel in my fist

We stand together where our fathers' ashes rise
