[Verse 1]
There is a darkness
A heaviness that is concealed
Inside these boundaries
Inside a plain of frozen fields
There are no weapons
No sharpened blows to be sustained
No, only malice
And the tapping of the rain
[Hook]
But there’s a dream I keep
In a world so dark and deep
The one true paradox
I’m terrified to meet
There’s a dream I keep
I go in when I sleep
There’s nothing they can do
No one will keep me from the heart of you
[Verse 2]
You are illicit
You are the shield against the fire
Of all that’s hollow
Of all the bodies on the pyre
[Pre-Hook]
I am unshaken
I am the one who will appear
As a long rising sound
That trembles in your ear
[Hook]
[Bridge]
Oooh (x2)
Til we hear the sound
Til we see the white horses
Oooh
It’s gonna break me down
It’s gonna break me down
Til we tear up the ground
[Pre-Hook]
[Hook]
