Bones on fire (Version 2)

Verse 1 – male vocal

Ashes fall across my chest

Fingers trace the bones I've lost

Every step we take is one more test

Of the fire burning in these hollowed fists

Pre-Chorus – male vocal

Hold your breath, let it break through

This is where our shadows come true

Chorus – call-and-response between male and female vocalists

Bones on fire, we are rising from the ashes

Bones on fire, every light that flickers gives us passage

We are running out of time, so let it burn inside

Rising from the embers till the dark turns light

Verse 2 – male vocal

Glass reflects a face I used to own

Now I'm searching for what's been erased and thrown away

Every breath I take feels like I've just begun to roam

But in this fire, only one thing feels at home

Pre-Chorus – male vocal

Hold your breath, let it break through

This is where our shadows come true

Chorus – call-and-response between male and female vocalists

Bones on fire, we are rising from the ashes

Bones on fire, every light that flickers gives us passage

We are running out of time, so let it burn inside

Rising from the embers till the dark turns light

Bridge – layered chant-like response

Burn the past

Burn the past

Bones turning to starlight

Let it all go

Let it all go

Chorus – call-and-response between male and female vocalists

Bones on fire, we are rising from the ashes

Bones on fire, every light that flickers gives us passage

We are running out of time, so let it burn inside

Rising from the embers till the dark turns light
