Swords in the Ash (versione 2)

Verse

Fires burning through the streets we know

Steel against steel in a fight for glow

Ashes on our feet as we walk into the light

We are made of this and we will ignite

Every shadow thrown across the wall

Becomes a sword we will take to all

Blood is rising from the heart below

The drums are calling out where we used to go

Pre-Chorus

Can you hear it? The steel in your hand

Feel the ground give under every stand

This is not our city, this is who we are

Let us burn like stars until we're gone far

Chorus

Swords in the ash

We will fight to rise from dust and ash

Steel in our hands, fire in our eyes

No horizon left where the battle ends

Swords in the ash

Burning up the world so we can start again

Nothing here that doesn't want to burn

Every city is a war, every life is a return

Verse

We move through smoke like wolves through prey

Our footsteps light on what will soon decay

Not one of us was ever meant to stay

But in this moment nothing else can say

We chase the sparks where the darkness bends

Catch them in our palms like they were meant to end

The world outside these walls we have not yet begun to see

Is just a furnace burning hot for me and thee

Pre-Chorus

Can you hear it? The steel in your hand

Feel the ground give under every stand

This is not our city, this is who we are

Let us burn like stars until we're gone far

Chorus

Swords in the ash

We will fight to rise from dust and ash

Steel in our hands, fire in our eyes

No horizon left where the battle ends

Swords in the ash

Burning up the world so we can start again

Nothing here that doesn't want to burn

Every city is a war, every life is a return

Bridge

This is not defeat, this is how we rise

Out of every ending something like us dies

In every fall there's fuel for our name

We are forged in this heat and nothing can reclaim the flame
