Stairwell to the Fire

[Verse 1] We march like shadows up a rusted stairwell, every footstep shakes the ground. Your fist, a signal, burning through me, It’s gasoline, the sparks unbound. I saw the streetlights drown in thunder, I saw your war cry light the flame. What we face is what we’re made of, what we’re made of has no name. [Chorus] What we risk if we break— the chains start to shake, the old world starts to quake. If I stand and wake, what we risk, what we risk if we break. [Verse 2] The air was steel, our breaths were molten, our shadows carved into the floor. A vow in ink, but left unspoken, a battle waits outside the door. And while the city roared like thunder, like an engine made of stone, I felt the danger in your breathing, and it called me to the throne. [Chorus] What we risk if we break— the chains start to shake, the old world starts to quake. If I stand and wake, what we risk, what we risk if we break. [Bridge] What we forge could break apart, a fault line ripping through the heart. But what we hide— cuts deeper still, and silence kills. [Chorus] What we risk if we break— a tremor, a clue, a roar breaking through. What we risk if we break, what we risk… what we risk if we break.
