Ice and Ember 2 (wersja 2)

Verse

We run the long-abandoned course through the frozen trees

Bare feet on the ice as we move to the beat of the runes

Every kick drum is a lightning strike that shakes the ground

I lose you in the darkness and find you again with the sound

Your hand catches mine in the smoke where our torches fade

We run till our lungs are empty and the cold starts to seep through our skin

You pull me closer when I stumble, your breath like a beacon on the wind

And together we keep going till the horizon blurs into flame and then

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel it building in the pit of your chest

Something that wants out, something that's been locked down too long

The storm is moving closer, the drums are getting loud

We're not running from anything anymore, we're running with it now

Chorus

Ice and ember, melting on my skin

Fire in our veins where the cold used to be

Frozen breath becomes a cloud that we breathe in

Every fall turns into something wild and free

Ice and ember, breaking through the night

Runners becoming rivers, losing shape but gaining light

We run till every drop of ice is gone, every flame has turned to gold

Nothing left but the feeling that's been growing in our bones

Verse

The wind picks up the embers and sends them dancing on the air

You catch a burning shard like it's a kiss from something true

The drums are talking secrets we can't quite hear yet

But every step we take feels more like walking home than flight

Your shoulder brushes against mine, sparks run wild down your spine

We move as one beneath the stars that start to flicker through the smoke

Every stumble turns into a step that's stronger and freer still

I lose myself in the back of the pack but I find you again when we hit the bend

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel it building in the pit of your chest

Something that wants out, something that's been locked down too long

The storm is moving closer, the drums are getting loud

We're not running from anything anymore, we're running with it now

Chorus

Ice and ember, melting on my skin

Fire in our veins where the cold used to be

Frozen breath becomes a cloud that we breathe in

Every fall turns into something wild and free

Ice and ember, breaking through the night

Runners becoming rivers, losing shape but gaining light

We run till every drop of ice is gone, every flame has turned to gold

Nothing left but the feeling that's been growing in our bones

Bridge

Stop running, just hold this fire

Let it burn out and let it climb my skin

I don't know who I used to be before tonight

But I know this isn't over yet, I'm still a runaway

Outro

We ran until the embers turned to light

And now we're standing where our shadows used to fight

No need for shoes or drums or any wall to hold us down

Ice and ember running through these streets till they burn back up again
