[Intro]
[Verse 1]
He made me from the silence and the stars
A prayer given wings above the dark
He said the world was fragile, full of teeth
And I would be the shield it couldn't make
I never questioned what I was or why
I only knew the fall of every blade
And when the shadows reached for what was his
I stood between the horror and the saved
[Chorus]
While I remain nothing breaks
While I stand nothing falls
Every field, every wall, every door
Holds the weight of heaven in its bones
I was made to never look away
I was made to never close my eyes
While I remain nothing dies
[Verse 2]
They sealed me in the silver and the stone
A prison made of silence and regret
The world outside grew wild without my light
And every prayer I heard I couldn't answer yet
Then the vault cracked open and I flew
A golden spiral burning through the grey
But something followed me out of the dark
A whisper I could feel but couldn't name
[Bridge]
He watched me turn against the ones I loved
He watched the light go red behind my eyes
The angel and the monster wore one face
And he unmade the thing he made to fly
[Final Chorus]
While I remained nothing broke
While I stood nothing fell
But the shield that held the world together
Couldn't save itself from hell
I was made to never look away
I was made to never close my eyes
And even angels made of hope
Eventually run out of sky
[Outro]
