[Verse 1]
Ash on the altar
Pages burned to gray
Priest with a shaking hand
Forgets the words to pray
Cracks in the stained glass
Halo made of rust
All of the sacred things
Turn back into dust
[Pre-Chorus]
I was down on my knees
Begging for a sign
Got a broken mirror
Staring back my eyes
[Chorus]
Revelations
Tearing through the sky tonight
Every secret
Written in electric light
All the lies that held me
Shatter when the thunder calls my name
Revelations
I rise inside the flame
[Verse 2]
Crowns made of silence
Thrones of bitter gold
Kings trade in kingdoms
Just to never grow old
I broke the contract
Tore it at the seam
Bled out the borrowed words
Woke up from their dream
[Pre-Chorus]
Now the temple of doubt
Shivers in the rain
Every stone that caged me
Splits beneath the strain
[Chorus]
Revelations
Tearing through the sky tonight
Every secret
Written in electric light
All the lies that held me
Shatter when the thunder calls my name
Revelations
I rise inside the flame
[Bridge]
I won’t kneel to hollow crowns (won’t kneel)
I won’t sleep in borrowed graves
If the stars all crash to ground
I will walk the waves (hey!)
I was blind in borrowed faith
Now I see in broken glass
Every scar
A burning gate
To a brighter path
[Chorus]
Revelations
Tearing through the sky tonight
Every secret
Written in electric light
All the chains that bind me
Melt into the scream that speaks my name
Revelations
I rise inside the flame
(revelations)
I rise inside the flame
