Balance of all things

[Intro – spoken, calm, spiritual] Any life that is taken is a new life reborn The balance is maintained [Intro Build – sung softly] Ooh, I hear the spirits calling Ooh, I feel the world dividing One breath in, one breath gone Still the balance carries on [Verse 1] I move quiet through the midnight Blue flame glowing in the thin light No fear living in my heartbeat Just the calm before the blade speaks I’ve seen brothers turn to shadows I’ve seen honor break in battle But I don’t chase the pain it brings I only serve the line between [Pre-Chorus] If the world falls out of place I’ll be standing in the way I don’t bend, I don’t break I keep the balance maintained [Chorus] Hold on, hold on When the night gets cold and the light feels gone Stand strong, stay calm I’m the shield when the war comes on Hold on, Hold on One life fades, one life sings That’s the weight of all things I won’t run, I won’t fall I keep the balance of all things Hold on, Hold on [Post-Chorus – catchy background vocals] Oh-oh, oh-oh The balance of all things Oh-oh, oh-oh The balance of all things [Verse 2] Two worlds pulling on my spirit One screams loud, one makes me hear it Every choice has a cost behind it Every wound leaves truth inside it I don’t fight to feed my anger I don’t strike to be remembered I let vengeance lose its wings Then I return to the line between [Pre-Chorus] If the world falls out of place I’ll be standing in the way I don’t bend, I don’t break I keep the balance maintained [Chorus] Hold on, hold on When the night gets cold and the light feels gone Stand strong, stay calm I’m the shield when the war comes on Hold on , Hold on One life fades, one life sings That’s the weight of all things I won’t run, I won’t fall I keep the balance of all things Hold on, Hold on [Post-Chorus – catchy background vocals] Oh-oh, oh-oh The balance of all things Oh-oh, oh-oh The balance of all things [Bridge – emotional, cinematic] I am not the rage I am not the fear I am not the voice That you want to hear I am what remains When the fire dies I am still awake With the world in my eyes If I lose myself Then the line will break So I bury my heart For the balance’s sake [Final Chorus – bigger, anthemic] Hold on, hold on When the night gets cold and the light feels gone Stand strong, stay calm I’m the shield when the war comes on Hold on, Hold on One life fades, one life sings That’s the weight of all things I won’t run, I won’t fall I keep the balance of all things [Final Post-Chorus – background singers] Oh-oh, oh-oh The balance of all things Oh-oh, oh-oh The balance of all things [Outro – spoken, fading] Any life that is taken is a new life reborn The balance is maintained
