I hear the silence loud as thunder Like the world is holding breath beneath the ground We were the ones who chased the fire Now we’re just shadows waiting to be found Ash on my hands, truth in my scars We prayed to broken dreams and dying stars The cracks are growing in the wall Can you feel it? It’s not far— If I lose it all, would you still believe me? Would you stand beside me when the light turns red? I will not kneel before the sky falls Even when the dark comes down And everything burns around I’ll scream my name before I lose it all This is my vow, Before the sky falls I see the truth in every fracture A thousand lies built the world we bled The storm is crawling up my backbone But I’ve made peace with every word I never said You looked at me like I was fragile But this heart is tempered steel and bone I may be one, but I’m not alone— We all rise When we’ve been overthrown If this is the end, then let it know my name I’m not afraid of pain—I’m afraid of silence I will not kneel before the sky falls Even when the dark comes down And everything burns around I’ll scream my name before I lose it all This is my vow, Before the sky falls (Oh-oh) Blood on the altar, fire in my chest (Oh-oh) Angels turned their backs, but I won’t rest (Oh-oh) Let the heavens shake, I won’t confess (Oh-oh) I’ll rise through the wreck, nothing left I will not kneel before the sky falls Even when the dark comes down And everything burns around I’ll scream my name before I lose it all This is my vow, Before the sky falls
