Lyrics

Intro

Mm

Mm-hmm

Oh-oh

Verse 1

I carved my name into the hollow bone of night

Every scar a treaty I never signed

The mountain keeps its ledger in red

Every step I take leaves the ground behind

Pre-Chorus

When the storm comes down

When the walls give way

I'll be standing on the wreckage

Wearing yesterday

Chorus

I am the fire that forgot to burn

I am the lesson no one chose to learn

Call me the shadow that swallowed the sun

The war I won when the war was won

Post-Chorus

(Won when the war was won)

(Won when the war was won)

Verse 2

My hands are maps of promises I broke

The river forgives but never forgets

I fed the wolves with borrowed thunder

Now the silence carries all my debts

Pre-Chorus

When the floor falls through

When the ceiling cries

I'll be out here on the fault line

Drawing every line of mine

Chorus

I am the fire that forgot to burn

I am the lesson no one chose to learn

Call me the shadow that swallowed the sun

The war I won when the war was won

Post-Chorus

(Won when the war was won)

(Won when the war was won)

Bridge

Raise the banner

Raise the banner black

Shatter the altar

Where the light falls back

Raise the banner

Raise the banner black

Every empire ends where the wild begins

Chorus

I am the fire that forgot to burn

I am the lesson no one chose to learn

Call me the shadow that swallowed the sun

The war I won when the war was won

Post-Chorus

(Won when the war was won)

(Won when the war was won)

(Won when the war was won)
