The Ember

Описание: Lyrics:

[Intro]

(Mmm... feel it...)

The ember glows...

[Verse 1

You bring the warmth in winter’s bite

A fleeting fire in the night

Hands that hold me, hands that bruise

I learn to crave the light you use

[Verse 2]

You say it’s love that leaves the marks

The storm that follows tender sparks

I stay for moments soft and sweet

Swallowing the ash at your feet

[Pre-Chorus]

They taught me silence, taught me grace

To smile through every burning trace...

[Chorus]

This is the ember

Passed like a gift, like a curse

Every daughter learns to nurse

We hold the heat until it scalds

Turn every gentle touch to walls

The ember, the ember

It glows so soft, it glows so red

One day we’ll burn your house instead

[Verse 3]

You call it passion, call it fate

The way you give and then you take

I wear the warmth like second skin

But underneath, the rage begins

[Pre-Chorus]

No more pretending it’s alright

We’ve carried fire through the night...

[Chorus]

This is the ember

Passed like a gift, like a curse

Every daughter learns to nurse

We hold the heat until it scalds

Turn every gentle touch to walls

The ember, the ember

It glows so soft, it glows so red

One day we’ll burn your house instead

[Bridge]

(Aah... feel it rise...)

For every time we said “it’s fine”

For every tear we turned to wine

We bank the coals, we feed the flame

Your warmth will never be the same...

[Final Chorus]

This is the ember

No longer yours to give or take

We are the fire, we’re awake

We carry heat in every vein

Turn every wound into a flame

The ember, the ember

It’s ours now, bright and red

We’ll light the world you left for dead

The ember...

The ember...

[Outro]

(Mmm... feel it now...)

The warmth... is ours...
