[Intro]
Thunder in the bloodstream
Iron in the air
Angels draw their faultless swords
Demons climb the stairs
[Verse 1]
Gilded gates are bleeding
Stained glass starts to crack
Trumpets sound like sirens
As halos turn to black
Golden wings are molting
Feathers scorched and curled
Heaven carves its battle lines
Across a trembling world
[Chorus]
This is war between heaven and hell
Where the fallen and the faithful dwell
Every prayer
Every curse we yell
Choirs and furies collide
Crown of ashes where a halo fell
I will stand in the fire and rebel
Let the sky be the final bell
Ringing over the divide
[Verse 2]
Seraphs with their faces
Hidden behind flame
Legions of the underworld
Calling out my name
Swords of molten silver
Teeth of shattered stone
I can taste the judgment
Burning through my bones
[Bridge]
[low vocal register] I walk the line
Between the thrones
Between the flames
Between the oaths I broke
And the blood I claim
[growl] Let the pure ones tremble
Let the wicked kneel
I tear the veil wide open
Make the heavens feel
[crescendo]
[Chorus]
[Outro]
Ash falls
On broken wings
Silence
Then the battle sings
One last shout
Through smoke and shell
Forever caught
Between heaven and hell
