Lyrics

Do you hear it? (Ah) The steel, the screams? (Ah)
The breaking of men?
(Ah) I wonder if the earth will even remember their names (ah)
I struck someone (ah) and they fell so fast (ah)
But when his eyes met mine (ah)
I saw myself like a mirror before it faded
It was just a little spark
Dancing in the wind
Unassuming, it descends into the night
We paid it little mind
At first, we should have known
Their plan, their lie
It was just a little smoke
Creeping underneath our door
Like we've ignored so many times before
But you've broken us down
That little spark you tried to hide
Is now burning from inside
You light the flame, we'll give you ashes
If you rig the game, we'll bring the masses
When everything you built collapses
And all is said and done, we'll see who's really won
It all started with a flash
And then we felt the blast
I still recall the smell of burning tires
Then someone yelled, "Hit the ground!"
With scattered bodies all around
That little spark just set the world on fire
You light the flame, we'll give you ashes
If you rig the game, we'll bring the masses
When everything you built collapses
And all is said and done, we'll see who's really won
Was the cost worth the risk? How did we end up like this?
Do we lend a helping hand or raise an angry fist?
That blank stare in the mirror, do they see what I see?
Who here has been chosen? Was it you? Was it me?
(A bitter fight) bitter fight still awaits, a decider of fates
Death still calls for us all, the ones who were forced to wait
You lit the flame, we gave you ashes
You rigged the game, we brought the masses
Nobody ever really wins these fights
Was it worth all of the pain and sacrifice?
(You lit the flame!) They always wanted us to burn
(You rigged the game!) When are we ever gonna learn?
(Who takes the blame?) All hope is lost if we don't try
Try to change what we've become
We're gonna burn for what we've done (we're gonna burn!)
