(Verse 1) Behind the walls of concrete and soot, where every day must taste like dust, stands a cage of twisted lead. Not a spark, only the fog drifts coldly by. (Bright) In the middle of the labyrinth of dead stone, the paralyzing silence encloses us. Weary faces, marked by life, accompanied by eternal silence in the storm. (Solo) (Chorus) In the halls of eternal night, we secretly lit the fire. From the shadows of the old world, we flee until the fortress falls. Just a spark, just a crack in the wall. A path of embers lies in our hands. (A path of embers lies in our hands.) [Verse 2] The outcasts gather scars and debris, while up above, wealth flaunts itself. Every step in the dust, a silent scream, spit onto the city's hard ground. The sleepless stare into the cold void, lest fear break them alive. They paint windows of glass in the dust, for to their protest, the world here remains deaf. [Chorus] In the halls of eternal night, we secretly lit the fire. From the shadows of the old world, we flee until the fortress falls. Just a spark, just a crack in the wall. A path of embers lies in our hands. (A path of embers lies in our hands) (Pre-chorus) Slam your chains to the cold gate… (ohh) Do you hear the rumbling underground? A new signal from mouth to mouth. Somewhere a massive stone breaks, we break out and break into it. There, where resistance begins silently, and the spark overcomes the walls of stone. When one runs, a thousand run, like a storm raging through the streets. No iron gate ever holds still, for what now wants to break free with all its might. A hammer blow that now turns fate, finally ending the reign of darkness. A loud scream that pierces to the core, until, in the end, the world stands still for a few seconds. (Solo-Slow) (Chorus) In the halls of eternal night, we secretly lit the fire. From the shadows of the old world, we flee until the fortress falls. Just a spark, just a crack in the wall. A path of embers lies in our hands. (A path of embers behind the veil of night.) (Solo) (Outro) The soot dissipates, the ash fades, (ash fades) because our spark reaches the sky. Do you see the crack? The fortress falls! We carry the fire into a new world. Out of the dust... into the light! The old night cannot hold us. No, it cannot hold us! (Fade out - Slow quietly) A path of embers... Lies in our hands. The first day... in the new land.
