[Verse] The fire is cold, the lanterns are dead The voices have quieted down in my head The kingdom is sleeping beneath all the snow And I have forgotten which way I should go [Verse] I carried the promise as long as I could Did everything they ever told me I should Now empty hands hold the weight of the floor I don’t know who I am fighting for anymore [Pre-Chorus] The shadows are long, the road is undone I’m miles away from the light of the sun Is this where the story is written to end? Without any guide, without any friend... [Chorus] In the dark after the fall When the world feels so impossibly small I’m breathing in silence, I’m gathering breath Through every piece of the heartache that’s left I don’t need the answers, I just need a sign That the smallest spark is still mine [Verse] A tear hits the stone, but it doesn't break There’s life in the shivering breath that I take The silence isn't a prison or cage It’s only a blank, unwritten page [Bridge] Even when the dawn feels a lifetime away Even when the colours have faded to grey The pulse underneath is refusing to quit There is a flame where the shadow is lit... I am still here. [Chorus] In the dark after the fall I’m rising to answer the quietest call Not with a battle, not with a roar Just stepping through an unopened door I don’t have the whole sky, but I have a line And the smallest spark is still mine [Outro] One quiet breath One heavy step A promise I kept... The dark is just waiting for morning.
