Lyrics

Intro

Mm

Mm-hmm

Oh

Verse 1

Built a tower out of wire and bone

Fingers bleeding on the sillicon throne

Carved our names in the endless code

Thought the circuit god would carry us home

Pre-Chorus

But the current flickers

And the metal moans

The machine remembers

What we left alone

Chorus

We rose in sparks

We fall in ash

Hands reach up

Then they crash

We rose in sparks

We fall in ash

Nobody hears the final flash

Drop

Down down down down

Turn the signal around

Down down down down

Verse 2

Wrote our laws on a burning screen

Chased a future that was never clean

Plugged our hearts into the humming grid

Lost the thing we swore we'd never hid

Pre-Chorus

Now the wires whisper

Through the hollow halls

The ghost we built

Is climbing up the walls

Chorus

We rose in sparks

We fall in ash

Hands reach up

Then they crash

We rose in sparks

We fall in ash

Nobody hears the final flash

Bridge

Maybe we were always meant to glow

Maybe every engine has to go

Maybe the brightest star is just a warning light

Blinking out in the digital night

Chorus

We rose in sparks

We fall in ash

Hands reach up

Then they crash

We rose in sparks

We fall in ash

Nobody hears the final flash

Drop

Down down down down

The signal burns out

Down down down down
