Before The Storm

Take away the air we breathe
Until you choke us out
We are strong enough to last
Don’t fill our hearts with doubt
I won’t accept it, lie down and take it
Your promises are paper thin
I’ve been burnt too many times
Letting darkness in

This could be our last journey
Our friends have fallen as kings
Burning common ground
Letting all your darkness in
I am smoke to your mirror
A break in the chain
All your skies may be clearer
But I won’t be back again

A smoke screen, see through me
Staring back is just like I can’t breath
(And I know that we’re young
And we keep holding on)

Too these iron lungs
I will keep holding on
