Stone clocks bleed in ruined halls Ash drifts through the broken walls We hear the years beneath our feet A distant drum A vow A beat We marched through fire in borrowed names Raised on banners Fed to flames We saw the crowns protect the liars While children slept beside the wires We carry smoke inside our lungs Old prayers die on bitten tongues Injustice carved us into steel Now all your holy masks are real No more hush No more chains No more love for their campaigns Step by step We hear them call Empire cracks And kings are fallin We are fallin through the night But we rise in blackened light From the ruin From the call We are not the ones to crawl Hear us thunder Hear us warn From the dark A dawn is born If we bleed We take it all We are fallin Never small We kicked through mud and shattered bone Made a graveyard of the throne The drums were loud The sky was red We counted names of all the dead The boys choir cuts the smoke in two A blade of light A cry of truth We were hunted Now we hunt With wrath in prayer And blood in front We are fallin through the night But we rise in blackened light From the ruin From the call We are not the ones to crawl Hear us thunder Hear us warn From the dark A dawn is born If we bleed We take it all We are fallin Never small We were broken We were blind Still the fire outlived time In the silence Hope would crawl Soft as dust through every wall Now we lift what war has torn Hold the lost And lead them forward We are fallin through the night But we rise in blackened light From the ruin From the call We are not the ones to crawl Hear us thunder Hear us warn From the dark A dawn is born If we bleed We take it all We are fallin Never small Ruined bells begin to ring Through the ash We learn to sing Past the gunpowder and gall We keep rising After fall
