Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] You pushed us to the edges Thought we'd break Then fade away Counted all our bruises Swore we'd bow our heads someday But we stitched our ragged banners From the pieces of our pride Every scar a tiny lantern Burning on the inside [Chorus] We shall never surrender You can't buy our breath You can bury our bodies You can't bargain with our depths We shall never surrender Write it in the storm and embers Carve it in our bones forever We shall never surrender [Verse 2] Your shadows crowd the doorway But the lock is ours to hold You can rattle every window We won't trade our souls for gold We are names you tried to silence We are faces you misread Now the quiet you abandoned Is the choir in your head (oh) [Chorus] We shall never surrender You can't buy our breath You can bury our bodies You can't bargain with our depths We shall never surrender Write it in the storm and embers Carve it in our bones forever We shall never surrender [Bridge] If we fall We fall together Hands linked tight through smoke and flame If we crawl We crawl together Till we're standing up again (again) You can take today from us But tomorrow knows our name [Chorus] We shall never surrender You can't buy our breath You can bury our bodies You can't bargain with our depths We shall never surrender Shout it till the walls remember Echo through the dark forever We shall never surrender

Big tom builds into each hook, piano doubling the topline. Second half lifts with stacked harmonies and a key-change tag, cymbal swells and ringing chords that hang in the air., ballad
