Ten Seconds to Midnight

There’s a whisper on the starlight
A chilling breath that’s running up your spine
Heaven’s door is cracking open
The time is coming for us to say goodbye
We’re on the edge of something greater
You can jump or fade into the night
If you want to see the morning
Take a chance and jump with us tonight
There’s a ripple in the stillness
Like the somber calm before a storm
It’s the tension in the quiet
And the beckoning from evermore
Countdown - ten seconds to midnight
'Cause it’s all coming down
Countdown - time for you to decide
‘Cause it’s all coming down

A thousand candles flicker as a breeze rolls in
Like ice upon your skin
Your very life is like the tongues that dim
Strangled in the wind
And as the wind picks up so does the night
Stifling the lights
The smoking wicks are all your eyes can find
They’re clouding up your mind
You’re running blind
Will you let me be your light
I will stay right by your side
Forget the dark, I’ll put the spark back in your eyes
Shed your doubt
I will never let you down
When your last remaining light goes out
A candle left to melt leaves you at your wick’s end
Lost without a friend
Your lonely silhouette won’t circumvent
The way the shadows bend
And with the pooling wax that drowns the flame
Your hope begins to fade
And every single cell in your body
Is screaming for the day
Don’t drift away

Drive your roots deep
As the mightiest tree
While you’re young
Rains will come; you won’t be
Washed away as you drink
The waters of the hurricane
Be rooted as the evergreen
Just stand your ground
Your innocence is all you need
Be patient, my son, now
Take in the shade
As you grow watch and wait
Soon you’ll face
The power of the blazing sun
Be the Tree

At times I wonder why a heart can break
The pressure feels like more than I can take
But no matter how intense the pain
You remain
My towers crumble but they stay contained
The cracks have turned to lines upon my face
But I draw solace as your voice refrains
That titanium is forged in flame
So Ignite this Wreck
Burn me down, burn me down ‘til there’s
Nothing Left
But the lingering scent of ashen memory
Light this Wreck
I’m not giving up; not giving in
Ignite this Wreck
Cause I won’t be free ‘til the flames consume me
My twisted metal is all bent and strained
It seems the damage is all I have gained
But through it all my strength has been sustained
As this titanium is forged in flame
Like a phoenix I will rise
From the ashes to the sky
The firelight that purifies
Will burn me into life

In the city of stone are a thousand homes
But everyone's alone and every heart is cold
The ghosts of yesterday stare you in the face
Haunt you with your pain and taunt you with your fate
You have nothing left
You call to mountains “Bury me;
May the crushing darkness swallow me
Only a tomb can set me free inside”
You call to mountains “Bury us;
May the cliff sides break and fall on us”
You say the pain is just too much this time
Can’t make it right
You've tried to climb the walls but you slip and fall
Giving it your all just brings you to a crawl
(When) it’s so wrong, for so long
Just hold on, when everything inside you screams
Why call to mountains “Bury me”
When you can tell them “Fall into the sea”
The empty tomb can set you free inside
Why say to mountains “Bury us”
We know the Cornerstone can cover us
This very blood was shed for you in time
To make it right
