Echo's Defiance

Touching madness, on display In the squall of chords, we fray [Pre-Chorus] Crash through the silence with a snarl In the clamor, find our way With every strum, we're spiraling In the static, we’d decay All the faces blur and blend Skies spin where the nights extend I'm in the fray Screams swallowed by the amp's roar Lost in the music's tidal war What's left to say Through tangled thoughts I wade and drift Steel strings, my solace, my riff-shifted gift Darkness grips, echoes fray In the depths of sound, we lose our way [Chorus] So we scream (scream), into the void's embrace And we claw (claw), at the edges of this place Once more we dive, where echoes play Fingers bleed on chords of dismay [Pre-Chorus] Rage through the shadows, and feed the swell Our anthem, a requiem, hard to tell With every pick, we stir the hive In the vortex, we come alive Voices crack in the fractured dusk Falling hard, in the blare we trust [Verse] Find the truth in a broken verse Our raw chorus, unreservedly terse Shattered dreams line these empty streets But in the reverie, my pulse repeats Grinding gears in the echo's thrall We stand defiant, we stand tall [Verse] In the grime, in the sweat-soaked fear Our battered souls, unmistakably clear Guitar's wail, our dissonant cry We rage against, under a tear-stained sky
