Echoes in the Embers

歌詞

In the quiet of the fallen stones, a city sleeps in grey A single, broken melody is all that fills the day We trace the lines of faces we may never see again And wonder if the sun will ever wash away this stain Don't you hear it? A forgotten sound A promise buried deep beneath the ground We close our eyes and try to recollect A world we were meant to protect But oh, the fire's burning in our souls A silent scream that's taking its control We are the children of the aftermath Walking a broken, solitary path We're fighting for the dawn in endless night Is anybody there to hold us tight? The echoes in the embers start to rise I see you standing in the haze, a ghost of what we were Your weary smile, a fragile shield against the coming blur We share a language spoken only by our tired eyes A silent understanding beneath these shattered skies Can you feel it? A familiar ache For every vow we swore we'd never break We lift our heads and face the biting wind For all the sins we have not sinned And oh, the fire's burning in our souls A silent scream that's taking its control We are the children of the aftermath Walking a broken, solitary path We're fighting for the dawn in endless night Is anybody there to hold us tight? The echoes in the embers start to rise They took our homes, they took our peace But in this silence, our strength will never cease For every tear that falls upon this land We'll find the courage just to stand You're not alone in this despair My voice will find you through the blackened air Because the fire's burning in our souls A silent scream that's taking its control We are the children of the aftermath Walking a broken, solitary path We're fighting for the dawn in endless night I am right here to hold you tight The echoes in the embers are our lives And in the embers, hope survives. In the silence... we are alive.
