From Ashes

The blood has welled up and dried

Crippling defeat, we fought and tried

Sending out our souls that have died

No recompense for those who had cried

As the only truth we've known has lied

Doomed to descent by the darkness we defied

Left empty on our knees with broken pride

Scrambling, divided and lost trying to hide

Not wanting our fate to decide

Hope and fear mingle and collide

Rekindling a raging flame, refuse to abide

Reborn from fury with a need to push against the tide
