Lyrics:
[Verse 1] Gunmetal morning, boots on pavement Cobbled warning, faces drawn Brass in pockets, heads held vacant Waiting silent for the dawn [Pre-Chorus] Lost in headlines, twisted meaning Careless footfalls, jagged truth Painted futures, never gleaning Parade of caution marching through [Chorus] Raise the flag above the ruins Ride the shadow, draw the line Crimson shadows marching forward We don't wait for any sign [Post-Chorus] Oh oh, oh oh Oh oh, oh oh [Verse 2] Trailing smoke across the alleys Steel-toed boots and ragged eyes With a bitter taste of glory And the tremor of disguise [Pre-Chorus] Between the sirens and the fiction Every promise turns to stone We take aim without conviction As the streets become our throne [Chorus] Raise the flag above the ruins Ride the shadow, draw the line Crimson shadows marching forward We don't wait for any sign [Post-Chorus] Oh oh, oh oh Oh oh, oh oh [Bridge] Painted shells on cracked pavements Mirrored eyes beneath the grime Promises fade in backroom basements Counting casualties in rhyme [Verse 3] Crimson laughter down the tunnels Broken pride behind the glass Dreams dissolve in rusted barrels Let the old world stumble past [Pre-Chorus] Under thinning clouds of thunder We keep marching, boots and breath Grasping reasons torn asunder Trading hope for what is left [Chorus] Raise the flag above the ruins Ride the shadow, draw the line Crimson shadows marching forward We don't wait for any sign [Post-Chorus] Oh oh, oh oh Oh oh, [Outro] Shadow traders counting tally Silent lips and loaded hands Scraps of faith, a tattered rally Stains that memory withstands Last salute to steel and reason Grey horizons closing slow Patterns bleed into the season Keep on marching, donβt let go [Post-Chorus] Oh oh, oh oh Oh oh, oh oh Oh oh, oh oh Oh oh, oh oh
