Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Grey sky, cold stone
Boots bang down on the cobblestones
Radio lies in every home
But the whispers cut through, “we’re not alone”
Kids skip class, rip down that flag
Cut out the crest, hold up the rag
Old men nod like, “we remember”
Wars don’t end just ’cause it’s November
Crowds thicken on the tramline tracks
Notes in pockets, fear in backs
Students shouting, ink-stained hands
“Freedom” written where the statue stands
[Chorus]
From Budapest to the borderline
We were fire in the frozen time
Bare hands vs. iron and steel
But the heartbeat, that was real
We were louder than the loaded guns
Every street had a thousand tongues
Say the year, feel the rush again
’56 lives in the blood, my friend
[Verse 2]
Night falls, but the city won’t sleep
Church bells clash with the tanks’ slow creep
Some pray soft, some curse loud
Some light shots in the smoky crowd
Molotov glow on the broken glass
Faces ash-smeared, moving fast
Every corner like a battlefield
Every rumor like a spinning wheel
“Minds are sharper than the metal” said
The boy with a book and a bandaged head
Mama at the window, candle flame
Whispers “child, remember this name”
[Chorus]
From Budapest to the borderline
We were fire in the frozen time
Bare hands vs. iron and steel
But the heartbeat, that was real
We were louder than the loaded guns
Every street had a thousand tongues
Say the year, feel the rush again
’56 lives in the blood, my friend
[Bridge]
Some dreams got buried in the snow (oh)
But roots run deep where they can’t go
You can crack the stone, you can crush the rose
But you can’t kill a story everybody knows
So we sing in the shadow of the chain bridge lights
For the ones who ran and the ones who stayed to fight
Every shout, every tear that they gave that fall
Is the echo in the throat of us all
[Chorus]
From Budapest to the borderline
We were fire in the frozen time
Bare hands vs. iron and steel
But the heartbeat, that was real
We were louder than the loaded guns
Every street had a thousand tongues
Say the year, feel the rush again
’56 lives in the blood, my friend
