Hold the Fire

[Verse 1]
Shadows calling through the neon rain
Broken memories still know my name
Running circles in a world gone cold
Searching for a fire to hold

Every heartbeat sounds like war tonight
Fading slow, but I’m still in the fight
Hands on my chest, trying not to fold
Searching for a fire to hold

[Pre-Chorus]
If I fall, pull me close
If I break, don’t let go
There’s a spark beneath the snow
I can feel it start to glow

[Chorus]
Hold the fire
Hold it high
Don’t let it die
Hold the fire
Hold me tight
Through the black sky

[Verse 2]
Same old ache in the window glass
Ghosts of who I was slip past
I wear the cracks like a second skin
Still, I let the heat back in

You said, “Stay,” and the dark backed down
One small flame in this broken town
Now my hands know what to build
Now my hands know how to feel

[Pre-Chorus]
If I fall, pull me close
If I break, don’t let go
There’s a spark beneath the snow
I can feel it start to glow

[Chorus]
Hold the fire
Hold it high
Don’t let it die
Hold the fire
Hold me tight
Through the black sky

[Bridge]
When the room goes hollow
And the night comes in
I’ll keep that ember
Under my skin
You and me, we don’t disappear
We burn our name right through the fear

[Chorus]
Hold the fire
Hold it high
Don’t let it die
Hold the fire
Hold me tight
Through the black sky
