Iron in Our Veins

Boot prints

In the dust of the dead past

Scars lit

Like a war-map on my back

Every doubt

Just a face I overran

Every fall

Another nail in what I am

We got iron in our veins

Hear the thunder in our names (hey!)

Let the fear ignite the flame

We rise

We rise again

When the ground begins to shake

We’re the cracks that never break

If it hurts

We let it stay

We rise

We rise again

Teeth grit

On the edge of the collapse

Hands bruised

But we’re pulling off the mask

Say my

Every failure to my face

Watch me

Turn it all into a blade

We got iron in our veins

Hear the thunder in our names (oh!)

Let the fear ignite the flame

We rise

We rise again

When the ground begins to shake

We’re the cracks that never break

If it hurts

We let it stay

We rise

We rise again

Bite down on the broken glass

Bleed out every second guess

If this is all the time we have

We’re burning it

Burning it

Into the end

We got iron in our veins

Hear the thunder in our names (hey!)

Let the fear ignite the flame

We rise

We rise again

When the world begins to fade

We’re the mark that time can’t take

Through the fire

Through the pain

We rise

We rise again
