Dark Winter Lyrics

The ash piles
A familiar sight today
Black snowflakes in the wind
The yesterdays our callused fingers can't reclaim
Each heavy breath
We take is proof
Of daunting war zone paths we didn't want
But to survive all had to choose

Hold on
Hold on
Hold on
The ice will melt
The sun will come

Sickness breeds shadows that lurk in hearts
Till they tear and bleed
Dark Winter
Perseveres
Voices screaming together as one
We won't take bended knee
Dark Winter
Perseveres
And so do we

Contagion burdens our humanity
Where childrens used to play
Now violence flares their futures crushed and quarantined
Scattered we all know what it takes
To weather through the cold
'Cause if we fall we forfeit too much that's at stake Hold on
Hold on
Hold on
The ice will melt
The sun will come

Sickness breeds shadows that lurk in hearts
Till they tear and bleed
Dark Winter
Perseveres
Voices screaming together as one
We won't take bended knee
Dark Winter
Perseveres
And so do we

Lives are lost
Hearts displaced
And no one knows
How many
We can save
Far off from home
Frozen still
But one day
We will outgrow
Break through

Sickness breeds shadows that lurk in hearts
Till they tear and bleed
Dark Winter
Perseveres
Voices screaming together as one
We won't take bended knee
Dark Winter
Perseveres
And so do we
