[Verse 1]
[M]
I wore my shadow like a crown
On a broken marble floor
My hands were stone, my heart was loud
But I could not ask for more
[F]
I found a crack in all that gray
A ribbon of winter gold
I sang your name into the dust
And watched the dark unfold
[Pre-Chorus]
[M]
Then you came close
Like a blade of light
[F]
Then you looked through
Every locked-up lie
[Chorus]
[Both]
Hold me in the thunder
Hold me in the flame
We were made for breaking
We were made to sing our pain
Hold me in the thunder
Call me by my name
If the world falls down around us
We will rise the same
[Verse 2]
[F]
You had a storm inside your chest
And I had wings of paper thin
You said, "Stay near me when I fall"
So I let the ruin in
[M]
I heard your voice through battle drums
Through every iron night
It turned my blood to holy fire
It turned my scars to light
[Pre-Chorus]
[F]
Now the silence shakes
Now the walls breathe
[M]
And the last cold fear
Starts to leave me
[Chorus]
[Both]
Hold me in the thunder
Hold me in the flame
We were made for breaking
We were made to sing our pain
Hold me in the thunder
Call me by my name
If the world falls down around us
We will rise the same
[Bridge]
[M]
I was never built for mercy
I was sharpened by the fall
[F]
I was never made for hiding
I was made to answer all
[M]
So take my hand
[F]
Take my hand
[Both]
Let the heavens open wide
[Final Chorus]
[Both]
Hold me in the thunder
Hold me in the flame
We were made for breaking
We were made to sing our pain
Hold me in the thunder
Call me by my name
If the world falls down around us
We will rise the same
Hold me in the thunder
Hold me in the flame
(hold me)
Hold me in the thunder
We will rise the same
