Life begins at birth

A struggle to unearth

And here your kingdom waits

Beyond these gates

I came alone to where you stood

these tools in my hand

your face hung low

so I dug your grave so shallow

You put on me this burden

I've shown what I can

I took down your cross

and I built your gallows

Ignite

Made Right

Ignite

the fire burning bright

until the morning light

unfolds her wings of flight

I came alone to where you stood

these tools in my hand

your face hung low

so I dug your grave so shallow

You put on me this burden

I've shown what I can

I took down your cross

and I built your gallows

Ignite

the fury dark as night

the truth is purely white

reaching beyond my site

Liar

take your cross back from me

Liar

lift it from my back

Watch me

as i break this wood

and build your downfall

Higher

death makes all things new

Higher

so all can see you

I cry

I built this for you

from these gallows

And when my pride fell away

I gathered wood so you could stay

Here I sit among these nails

meant for my hands

You loved me so

The gallows creak, bent from the weight

Release me now

The fire burns, embers rise

remember me & what I built to bring us close

The wood's still there

standing tall against the sky

where you once stood

And then my pride fell away

this gathered wood now burned and gray.

Liar

Take your cross back from me

Liar

Take all your wood back

Watch as

I lift it higher

and build your gallows

Liar

Swing from your gallows

Liar

Your grave made shallow

My eyes, the last thing you'll see

as you swing
