[Verse 1] Boots on the metal, dust in the air Mask on my face, feel every stare Muffled breathing, world in a haze Finger on the trigger, watching it blaze Walk through the choke where the cowards hide Hear distant shouting on the other side See the shadows dance on the wall I light the match and I burn it all [Chorus] Through the fire, hear the silence in my head Everything is orange, painting every corner red See them scatter when they hear that battle cry I just laugh behind the mask and watch the rockets fly Through the fire, let the city glow at night When the sparks are falling, I am feeling so alive In the smoke, I’m a phantom in the sky I’m the last thing that you see before you close your eyes [Verse 2] Hands on the handle, tank on my back Rain liquid thunder along the track Hear the sizzling under my feet Turn any fortress into retreat Spy in the rafters, cloak in the dark Scout on the flank trying to dart past the spark I spin around and the hallway roars One pull of the trigger and I settle the score [Chorus] Through the fire, hear the silence in my head Everything is orange, painting every corner red See them scatter when they hear that battle cry I just laugh behind the mask and watch the rockets fly Through the fire, let the city glow at night When the sparks are falling, I am feeling so alive In the smoke, I’m a phantom in the sky I’m the last thing that you see before you close your eyes [Bridge] Push them back to the point, hear the klaxon scream Pressure rising, metal grinding, overheated dream Airblast sends their bullets right back through Red and blue colliding in a burning view Flames twist and spiral in a wild parade Footsteps echo in the tunnels that we’ve made I don’t need words for the war I bring Every breath is gasoline, every swing a spring [Chorus] Through the fire, hear the silence in my head Everything is orange, painting every corner red See them scatter when they hear that battle cry I just laugh behind the mask and watch the rockets fly Through the fire, let the city glow at night When the sparks are falling, I am feeling so alive In the smoke, I’m a phantom in the sky I’m the last thing that you see before you close your eyes
