Fires in the Dark 6

Verse

Ravens call when the night is young

Smoke from the bonfire clings to our tongue

Twenty-two, skin still holding heat

This is what they made us run for in the street

I left the cities where the steel gets cold

Took my drum and a hundred dollars in gold

Found the woods and lit up the sky

This is how we learn to survive

Pre-Chorus

Do you hear that rumble on the ground?

Something old coming back around

Chorus

Fires in the dark, fire in our veins

Fires in the dark, where the wild things remain

Ravens call, let the drum take us through

We are not running out of anything new

Verse 2

Stars like holes punched open high above

River ice is cracking under our bare feet and love

Someone's laughing so hard they're crying loud

The wolves that left us came back to this crowd

I used to run from every sound I couldn't face

Now the forest is my only hiding place

I traded chains for a hundred hands held tight

This is how we learn to carry fire through the night

Pre-Chorus

Do you hear that rumble on the ground?

Something old coming back around

Chorus

Fires in the dark, fire in our veins

Fires in the dark, where the wild things remain

Ravens call, let the drum take us through

We are not running out of anything new

Bridge

Nothing left but this wood and this breath

No walls to climb when we've already been there deep

Let go of everything that isn't true

This fire is all that's left for me and you

Chorus

Fires in the dark, fire in our veins

Fires in the dark, where the wild things remain

Ravens call, let the drum take us through

We are not running out of anything new
