Burn to Rise (Version 2)

Verse

Salt on my collarbone where the smoke ran deep

Every light I lost comes rising through the beat

Hands up like a signal that the dark can't hold back

I let go of gravity when the fire cracked

Pre-Chorus

Something in me breaking, something taking flight

Feel it climbing higher than it has to fight

This is how we built a ship from broken glass and gold

This is how we rise up, this is how we know

Chorus

Burn to rise above the tide

Every wall comes down inside

Hands up, hearts on fire now

We are burning to rise somehow

Verse 2

Rope was frayed but I didn't break it loose for nothing

Every doubt I ever had this ship's got permission

To cross the water like it's standing still

I turn the dark into a thousand miles of will

Pre-Chorus

Something in me breaking, something taking flight

Feel it climbing higher than it has to fight

This is how we built a ship from broken glass and gold

This is how we rise up, this is how we know

Chorus

Burn to rise above the tide

Every wall comes down inside

Hands up, hearts on fire now

We are burning to rise somehow

Bridge

Maybe I was never broken at all

Maybe it was just a test for what it takes to stand tall

Every scar that's mine is fuel in this flame

I turn every burn into gold again

Chorus

Burn to rise above the tide

Every wall comes down inside

Hands up, hearts on fire now

We are burning to rise somehow
