19 - TURN AWAY - Mögle Winter

[Intro] [Atmospheric wind] [Heavy distorted bass drone] [Distant chain clanking] [Verse 1] Oh, I dream of fields I've left behind Old ghosts still walk these roads of mine Turn away… turn away… turn away I still remember that red earth The place that taught me who I was Where I stood before the fire Where I learned what leaving costs Cold before the dawn came breaking Frost was burning on the ground I heard the silence call my name But I could never turn around Turn away… turn away… turn away [Pre-Chorus] I carry what I cannot bury I carry what I cannot save But every step beneath my feet Takes me farther from the grave [Chorus] Rise up, rise up — we're moving forward Rise up, rise up — leave it behind Rise up, rise up — the fire's burning Still alive, still alive Turn away From everything that held us down Turn away Don't let the past become your ground [Verse 2] I long to go back home sometimes To where the fields knew every scar But home becomes a distant fire When you've already traveled far I've seen good men lose their names I've watched old promises turn cold Some chains are made of iron Some are made of what we're told And I won't carry every burden Just because it once was mine There are things the heart remembers That the hands must leave behind [Pre-Chorus] I carry what I cannot bury I carry what I cannot save But every step beneath my feet Takes me farther from the grave [Chorus] Rise up, rise up — we're moving forward Rise up, rise up — leave it behind Rise up, rise up — the fire's burning Still alive, still alive Turn away From everything that held us down Turn away Don't let the past become your ground [Bridge] [Acoustic slide guitar] So rest now, quiet child… You don't have to be afraid I know the road has taken something I know the price we've paid Every chain I carried Was never meant to stay [whisper] Turn away… [Final Chorus] Rise up, rise up — we're moving forward! Rise up, rise up — we're still alive! Rise up, rise up — the fire's burning! We won't disappear tonight! Turn away! From every shadow calling back! Turn away! Don't let the dead roads pull you back! Our fire keeps burning on! Our fire keeps burning on! Our fire keeps burning on! [Outro] [Tempo slows] Turn away… From the fields… From the fire… From the name I used to know… [Single tolling bell] Turn away.
