"Ballroom on the Ashes" lyric video

They said a storm was coming Not from heaven But from men who thought they were. A whisper in the market square A lion dressed like a lamb Silver tongues and paper crowns Drawing lines in shifting sand They swore the sword was mercy Swore the fire was light Swore the wars were peace accords Signed in the dead of night And the crowd leaned in closer To the voice that fed their fear Every riddle sounded holy When the ending felt so near When the man comes smiling With a promise in his hand He don’t need chains to bind you Just a mark so you can stand Wear it proud upon your forehead Let it shine in crimson red Trade your doubt for easy answers Let the prophets do your thinking instead And we’ll dance In the ballroom on the ashes Of the things we never said Delilah’s cutting quietly The pillars start to sway Strong men fall for softer lies And call betrayal “the way” Children cry behind the walls But the music drowns the sound A rug so wide it covers sins And flattens sacred ground On top they build a palace With gold leaf and champagne And toast to truth’s disappearance While it’s buried under shame The seer wrote in riddles Of crowns that turned to clay Of shepherds feeding wolves While the lambs were led away Nation rising over nation In the name of keeping score Peace proclaimed from podiums While the cannons roar When the man comes smiling Will you know him by his eyes? Or by the way the faithful Turn their backs on children’s cries? Mark of loyalty burning Like a sunset on the skin He won’t force you through the doorway He’ll just tell you it’s a win And we’ll dance In the ballroom on the ashes Of the truth we traded in
