[Verse 1] (Deep controlled female growl) I woke up in a world I didn't choose Every road I trusted led me back to lose The ground I stood on turned to sand Nothing ever stays the way I planned [Verse 2] (Deep controlled female growl) I watched the ones I love get pulled away By voices in the dark they learned to obey I called their names into the cold But still I hold, I still hold [Pre-Chorus] (Deep controlled female growl) No wall will decide Where my story ends [Chorus] (Deep controlled female growl) The walls will shift, the paths will turn Nothing ever stays the same But I still know what I am fighting for I still remember every name [Verse 3] (Deep controlled female growl) Some days the fire burns me to the bone Some nights the frost won't let me go I fall, I break, I bleed, I stand I carry hope with shaking hands [Verse 4] (Deep controlled female growl) The world will change a thousand times It rewrites every map I find But love is not a road to lose It's the only way I choose [Chorus] (Deep controlled female growl) The walls will shift, the paths will turn Nothing ever stays the same But I still know what I am fighting for I still remember every name [Drum Section] [heavy war drums, iron strikes, deep drone] [Bridge] (Deep controlled female growl) If you feel lost If you feel alone The road keeps changing But you're still going home The dark will twist the world you see But it will never own what's free [Final Chorus] (Deep controlled female growl, full drums) As long as a door remains locked I will find my way For those I love, against the dark I will not walk away [Outro] [heavy drums, war horns, chains] (Deep controlled female growl) They took almost everything But not my promise Not my promise
