Hold On 02:47
When they steal it away what will you do? Where you turn on that day will say much for you Will you fall to your knees and scream out why? Or will you raise yourself up and shake down the sky? It's not your fight So just hold on tight It's not your fight So just hold on Bring down the walls Bring down the walls And keep your mind on the work at hand Though it's ugly and cruel And they'll remember your name Though that's all that's left of you [Quiet now] It's not your fight So just hold on tight It's not your fight So just hold on

In The Fire 03:07
I won’t give up I won’t give up, come whatever danger may Though the path fades before me Though the ground beneath me burns away I was born in the fire And I live in the fire now Ash my crown I was born in the fire So I’ll live in the fire now Until the sun grows cold Don’t think I don’t see it Don’t think I don’t see it What fate plans for me Don’t think I’ll just stand here, accept it Take these chains that you offer When I believe that I’m free You lift me up To give me further to fall I was born in the fire And I live in the fire now Ash my crown I was born in the fire So I’ll live in the fire now Until the sun grows cold And though the smoke will rise And choke my sight I’m not finished yet No these eyes Still see through you

Call 03:24
In my sleep they find me Awake into a new dream I hear them call And I hear them call Take the wheel and hold time Fill the void in my mind And I hear them call And I hear them call But don't run, Don't run from what you feel What you feel Stop my ears, shield my eyes Feel them like the sunrise And I hear them call And I hear them call But don't run, Don't run from what you feel What you feel

Arrows 03:22
Seems like winter is going to last Sky grows dark over the mountain pass Calling I'm reaching out And there's no And there's no doubt Feels like falling, this weightless tread Swirl like smoke inside my head Feels like falling And in my dreams we're flying free Sunlight gold upon the sea Falling I'm reaching out And there's no And there's no doubt They warm like fire, hold my aim true No cell, no cage they can't break through Like arrows straight they fly to you

Lights 03:15
I see you, but I can't reach you And I can't even speak my name Do you know me, do you remember? Do I see a flicker of a flame? And lights rush in And there's a storm that's breaking A storm that's breaking Born far away, a rumble on a foreign shore And lights rush in Is this my heart that's breaking My heart that's breaking Or is this just how it feels To start again And lights rush in And there's a storm that's breaking A storm that's breaking Born far away, a rumble on a foreign shore And lights rush in I see your heart awakening Your heart awake and you know This is how it feels To start again And we start again It's been a long and lonely ride, love Now I don't want to leave your side, no It's been a long and lonely ride, love Now I don't want to leave your side And we start again
