[Verse 1]
Burning wings above the battlefield
Ash in my hands
I was reaching for a heaven
Built on rusted plans
Every promise was a staircase
Climbing into lies
Every halo that they offered
Blinded both my eyes
[Pre-Chorus]
I carved my faith in stone and steel
But it cracked beneath my stride
Thought I’d rise beyond this world
I just learned how to collide
[Chorus]
I’m a fallen angel
Falling faster than the light
Thought I was chosen
Just a shadow in the sky
Lost soul
Lost in darkness
Screaming at the night
Reaching for the flame
But I’m burning as I climb
[Verse 2]
Broken feathers on the altar steps
Blood on the glass
Every prayer I ever whispered
Echoes back like laughs
I was chasing crowns of thunder
Voices in my head
Now the choir that once called me
Leaves my name for dead
[Pre-Chorus]
I bled belief on shattered stone
Till the ground refused my tears
If salvation wears a mask
I will tear away the fear
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
[low vocal register]
If the stars won’t answer
I will light my own
If the gates stay silent
I will build a throne from bone
[crescendo
Full band]
Let the heavens watch me rise
From the ruin and the dust
If I fall a thousand times
I’ll drag their kingdoms down with us
[Chorus]
