Rift Within (Version 2)

Verse

Steel towers pierce the storm above

Flickering signs against the smoke

I can feel it climbing through my chest

Like a heartbeat I never knew

Bare hands on a broken rail

The wind is howling out my name

Every window cracks like glass rain

And I am open, wide awake

Pre-Chorus

Can you hear it building in the dark?

A sound that's bigger than we are

Something rising up through every scar

Chorus

Rift within the sky tonight

Breaking loose into the light

Rift within the ground below

This is where I let go

Verse 2

Frozen lake beneath my feet

Every breath igniting flame and steam

Bones remember what they meant

To never be the same again

Sirens cut through static rain

Iron sky turning red and gold

Nothing left that I would hold back now

I am burning off to zero cold

Pre-Chorus

Can you hear it building in the dark?

A sound that's bigger than we are

Something rising up through every scar

Chorus

Rift within the sky tonight

Breaking loose into the light

Rift within the ground below

This is where I let go

Bridge

Not the name, not the face, just this

Nothing left but open space

No chains, no walls, no time to waste

Just the storm and my own pace

Chorus

Rift within the sky tonight

Breaking loose into the light

Rift within the ground below

This is where I let go
