Backyard Battle Cries

Описание: #metal #metalcore #rock

[Verse 1]
Cut knees
Rusted bikes
Summer bleeding through our shirts
Sneaking past the fences
Mud on brand new sneakers
Trash can armor
Plastic swords held high
We swore that every cul-de-sac was someplace wild

[Pre-Chorus]
We carved our names in that dead oak tree
Tiny kings of a cracked concrete

[Chorus]
These are our backyard battle cries
Echo in my chest when the years go quiet
All of our scraped-up
Sky-wide lives
You were my shelter in a storm of sirens
If time burns all we built to ash
I’ll still raise my hands to the past
(woah)
For every beautiful
Broken night
These are our backyard battle cries

[Verse 2]
Hand-me-down hoodies
Pockets full of fireworks
Laughing in the dark till the streetlights blurred
First taste of trouble
First time feeling brave
You talked me off the ledge
I dragged you from the flame

[Pre-Chorus]
We failed
We fought
We learned to stay
Blood brothers in a world that changed

[Chorus]
These are our backyard battle cries
Echo in my chest when the years go quiet
All of our scraped-up
Sky-wide lives
You were my shelter in a storm of sirens
If time burns all we built to ash
I’ll still raise my hands to the past
(yeah)
For every beautiful
Broken night
These are our backyard battle cries

[Bridge]
Do you remember when the sky felt closer
Laying on the roof
Counting satellite ghosts
Saying “when we’re older
We won’t get colder”
But we did
We did
Still you’re the fire in the snow

[Chorus]
These are our backyard battle cries
Echo in my chest when the years go quiet
All of our scraped-up
Sky-wide lives
You were my shelter in a storm of sirens
If time burns all we built to ash
I’ll still raise my hands to the past
(hey!)
For every stupid
Perfect night
These are our backyard battle cries
