Gallows Breeze 2 (version 2)

Verse 1

I watch the city burn like a dying ember

Every window's empty, every face is a cipher

Your hand finds mine in the smoke-filled alleyway

The sirens are screaming out for the final day

I feel your pulse racing like a prisoner's heartbreak

We're running on nothing but the gallows wind and dark

Pre-Chorus

Hold tight to my hand, hold it fast as we can

Every step we take is our last chance to dance

Don't let go now, no matter how loud they call

This is all that's left of us at all

Chorus

We're chasing the gallows breeze through the city streets tonight

Burning the shadows and taking flight with every light

Nothing can stop what's already been set in motion

The wind is carrying our names to a better devotion

Verse 2

I see your eyes locked on mine like a challenge made real

We're two rebels standing at the edge of the final reveal

Your breath comes faster than I ever could imagine

Every step we take puts another block between us and the gallows' design

You say 'keep running' with a smile in the dark of it all

I'll follow you anywhere till our names start to fall from the wall

We're ghosts on fire moving through empty, abandoned space

Chasing every second that the clock's hands can't erase

Pre-Chorus

Hold tight to my hand, hold it fast as we can

Every step we take is our last chance to dance

Don't let go now, no matter how loud they call

This is all that's left of us at all

Chorus

We're chasing the gallows breeze through the city streets tonight

Burning the shadows and taking flight with every light

Nothing can stop what's already been set in motion

The wind is carrying our names to a better devotion

Bridge

This isn't an escape – this is just where we start

Every breath we take writes a new page in our hearts

Chorus

We're chasing the gallows breeze through the city streets tonight

Burning the shadows and taking flight with every light

Nothing can stop what's already been set in motion

The wind is carrying our names to a better devotion
