All I Know

The air is heavy the silence loud The weight of the world hangs in the clouds But I've walked this path I know it well Through shadows and echoes through heaven and hell I see the cracks in the walls you've built A fortress of sorrow a kingdom of guilt But I've got my hands calloused and worn To hold up your sky when it's ready to storm The nights will come like a thief in your head Whispers of doubt circling the bed But we've walked this fire the embers still glow Through ashes and ruin it's all that I know Don't let the shadows bury your light We're more than the monsters that haunt in the night I'll carry the weight when you can't even crawl Together we rise or together we fall The mirror speaks lies I've heard them before Reflections of battles that tear at the core But my voice will cut through the noise in your mind A reminder of strength that we always find I've tasted the edge stood where it breaks Felt the earth tremble and hide from the quake But I've learned the art of holding the line And I'll fight for you like you've fought to survive If the world turns its back if the walls cave in If the storms rage loud drowning what's within- We don't fold we don't shatter; we're iron we're flame Every scar every shadow part of our name Don't let the shadows bury your light We're more than the monsters that haunt in the night I'll carry the weight when you can't even crawl Together we rise or together we fall So don't let go even when it's unclear Every step through the dark is a step out of fear I see your battles I know your war- But I'll stand with you till we even the score If the world turns its back if the walls cave in If the storms rage loud drowning what's within- We don't fold we don't shatter; we're iron we're flame Every scar every shadow part of our name Don't let the shadows bury your light We're more than the monsters that haunt in the night I'll carry the weight when you can't even crawl Together we rise or together we fall So don't let go even when it's unclear Every step through the dark is a step out of fear I see your battles I know your war- But I'll stand with you till we even the score
