Ash on my teeth,
copper in my breath Every ticking second leaning into death
My shield is split,
the armor ground to rust Still I plant my heels deep into
the dust (stand tall)
The banners burned out hours ago
There's no retreat, no place to go
Break my bones, shatter every frame
I will breathe defiance through the flame
Even if my last stand bleeds the ground dry
I'll look this ruin straight into the eye
(never
down)
Fingers numb,
tearing at the cold
Every wound carries stories never told
They tell me surrender buys an easy grave
I tell them a coward is the only slave (never yield)
Let the dark come pouring through the seams!
Let them tear apart my final dreams!
I am broken, I am torn Yet unbent
where I was born!
Break my bones, shatter every frame
I will breathe defiance through the flame
Even if my last stand bleeds the ground dry
I'll look this ruin straight into the eye (stand
fast)
Until the lights burn out...
Till the heartbeat stops...
(still standing)
