Raise the Hammer

Intro

Ha! Ha! (ha!)

Iron breath, cold and clean

Strike the bell, split the seam

Verse

Fist of thunder, skin of coal

Marching steps that crack the road

Metal teeth and molten bone

I carry dust where light once glowed

Blood in brass, a steady drum

Counting names that never come

Blind devotion, sharpened law

We feed the flame and learn to crawl

Pre-chorus

Tension knotted in the spine (tied, tied)

Screaming gears that grind the time

Hold your nerve or lose your mind (hold, hold)

Breathe the ash and feel the bind

Chorus

Raise the hammer, break the sky (raise it up)

Raise the hammer, break the sky

Raise the hammer, break the sky (ha!)

Raise the hammer, break the sky

Verse

Cold confession, iron tongue

Spoken lies that weigh a ton

Letters burned on midnight stone

Promises turned into bone

Chains know names they won't forgive

Echo of the way we live

Step by step the bridge gives way

We are the ones who paved the day

Pre-chorus

Hear the metal sing its claim (sing it)

Falling rhythm, split the frame

Feel the fever in your veins (feel it, feel it)

All the nights fall into flames

Chorus

Raise the hammer, break the sky (yeah)

Raise the hammer, break the sky

Raise the hammer, break the sky (ha!)

Raise the hammer, break the sky

Raise the hammer, break the sky

Raise the hammer, break the sky

Bridge

Slow burn, like a last refrain

Clench your teeth against the rain

Grip the edge, the wire, the pain

Stand or fall, there's no escape

(ha! ha!)

Chorus

Raise the hammer, break the sky (break it)

Raise the hammer, break the sky

Raise the hammer, break the sky (break it)

Raise the hammer, break the sky

Outro

Ha! (raise it up)

Ha! (break it)

Ha! (raise it up)
