After The Last Light

Walber Costa

Smoke on the horizon
Ruins underneath the rain
Ghosts of every nation
Calling out our names

We were born in silence
Raised among the steel and dust
Holding broken pieces
Of a world that turned to rust

But somewhere beyond the fear
A distant sound is drawing near

After the last light fades away
We'll be the fire that remains
When all the towers fall apart
Hope will still beat in our hearts

No, we are not defeated yet
We rise above the emptiness
Through the shadows, through the pain
We'll build the world again

Children of the wasteland
Looking at the crimson sky
Searching for tomorrow
In the echoes of goodbye

Every shattered highway
Every scar upon the earth
Is a reminder we survived
And survival still has worth

If heaven feels too far to find
We'll create it with our lives

After the last light fades away
We'll be the fire that remains
When all the towers fall apart
Hope will still beat in our hearts

No, we are not defeated yet
We rise above the emptiness
Through the shadows, through the pain
We'll build the world again

Hear the drums across the night
Feel the engines come alive
One last chance to change our fate
One last dream we won't betray

The ashes fall like pouring rain
But love survives the end of days

After the last light disappears
We'll sing louder than our fears
When the darkness takes the sky
We'll become the reason why

No, we don't need a crown of gold
No savior standing tall alone
Side by side against the end
This is where the future begins

Through the fire
Through the storm
We are still here
We carry on
