Lyrics
[Intro] [Verse 1] The bell in the quarry counts what we owe Dust on the altar, frost below You held the match to the old stone door I heard your footsteps, then nothing more [Pre-Chorus] Still i carry the weight of your name Through iron weather, through ash and flame [Chorus] Rise from the blackened ground Turn when the walls come down I will not bow to the years I will not drown in the tears Your voice is a wound i defend A broken oath i refuse to end [Verse 2] The river runs silver beneath the mill Cold as the promise we couldn't kill Letters are buried beneath the floor Each one a reason to ask for more [Pre-Chorus] Still i carry the weight of your name Through iron weather, through ash and flame [Chorus] Rise from the blackened ground Turn when the walls come down I will not bow to the years I will not drown in the tears Your voice is a wound i defend A broken oath i refuse to end [Bridge] If the mountain keeps its silence I will carve the answer there If the night demands surrender I will meet it standing bare [Final chorus] Rise from the blackened ground Turn when the walls come down I will not bow to the years I will not drown in the tears Your voice is a wound i defend A broken oath i refuse to end [Outro] The bell fades out, but i remain A spark beneath the weight of rain
