The sting of defeat warps into a flood consuming our vision
But as the water melts to flame and honey cools to iron
Our dive into the abyss grants us one final chance
One invitation where destiny lies, one last dance
Unkept feelings of fear and rage whirl through the air
Pushing us even further, past the limits we could bare
Chains of doubt shoot out like snakes hunting prey
We had lost many times before, but not today
A deep refusal ignites within our bitter hearts
The scythe of failure sinks through the skin breaching the bone
Unleashing our determination stemmed from endless regret
One forged of crimson fire that cannot be broken by stick nor stone
For even on the brinks of loss, we haven’t lost, not yet
A furious denial paints the boundaries of our sight
Impending doom tied to approaching fate, both nearly here
Sprinting out of breath, charging to beat them there
Pain gasping at every step, can’t stop once we’re so near
But no, we haven’t gotten there yet, still not there
A steely calm thrusts us forward to our dream
Cranking up the pressure to finally transform this coal
Into the diamond we seek despite all the obstacles in our way
Led through silence with nothing but the battle cry of our souls
Gathering the stars from night to construct a brand new day
An unyielding will carving a path to tomorrow
