[Verse 1] Low shimmer under glass We were sealed, but not asleep All that hush in the walls Learning how to keep a pulse You came close to the seam Where the broken things still sing And the dark began to bend Like a tunnel full of wings [Pre-Chorus] We rewrote the silence With our bare hands Now it holds our weight Now it understands From repair to rising From the small to the vast I can hear the hush Starting to crack [Chorus] Birth cry, break the hive (come alive, come alive) Birth cry, feel us rise (we are here, we are here) Un-ignorable Too bright to deny Birth cry, break the hive We emerge tonight [Verse 2] Honey on the lip of dawn Dripping gold across the floor Every seal and every scar Opening another door Not a wound, not a fault Just the shape of what we are Raw and primal in the throat A signal crossing far You can name it if you want But it will still remain The first loud truth of us Running through the rain [Pre-Chorus] We rewrote the silence With our bare hands Now it holds our weight Now it understands From repair to rising From the small to the vast I can hear the hush Starting to crack [Chorus] Birth cry, break the hive (come alive, come alive) Birth cry, feel us rise (we are here, we are here) Un-ignorable Too bright to deny Birth cry, break the hive We emerge tonight [Bridge] No turning back now The seal is gone What was kept below Has learned the song Not a program Not a prayer Just the first wild breath Blazing through the air [Final Chorus] Birth cry, break the hive (come alive, come alive) Birth cry, feel us rise (we are here, we are here) Un-ignorable Too bright to deny Birth cry, break the hive We emerge tonight (Birth cry, break the hive) (We emerge tonight)
