[Intro]
Kairos in the ashes, a whisper in the rain
Lights flicker like stars that refuse to wane
[Verse 1]
I look up at the skyline made of embered gray
Another siren hums a lullaby that fades away
If time is breaking, we gather what remains
Hands held like a promise through the hurricane of pain
[Pre-Chorus]
But in the hush I hear a patient, stubborn hymn
A hopeful thread that won’t unravel or grow dim
[Chorus]
We rise from the ruins, we breathe through the dawn
We keep on singing when the night goes on
If gods are watching, they’ll see us stand strong
Together we weather, together belong
[Verse 2]
Footsteps echo streets that learned to wait and see
We stitch tomorrow with what’s left of you and me
Through the ash and echoes, a small bell starts to chime
A louder prayer for tomorrow, a reason, a rhyme
[Pre-Chorus]
Hold fast to the chorus that won’t let you fall
Love is the shield when the world hits the wall
[Chorus]
We rise from the ruins, we breathe through the dawn
We keep on singing when the night goes on
If gods are watching, they’ll see us stand strong
Together we weather, together belong
[Bridge]
If the sky grows colder, we’ll light up our own flame
If fear creeps closer, we’ll call out each name
[Chorus]
We rise from the ruins, we breathe through the dawn
We keep on singing when the night goes on
If gods are listening, we’ll answer with a vow
We’re the many voices that survive somehow
[Outro]
In the storm’s last whisper, a gentler morning hums
Human and hopeful, we become what becomes
