Rushing out the house while it's burning down
Running for the door trying to make it out
Ashes fill the sky
You're left choosing sides
Leaving everything that you know behind
See it fall apart right before your eyes
Tears run down your face
Everything's erased
Black-Heart-Beat

This is the fall out
This is the break down
What are you fighting for
Give all that you've got
Down to the last drop
What are you fighting for
Standing in the fall out

Picking up the pieces with broken hands
Put it back together however you can
Left you high and dry
You're done asking why
Never going back to what used to be
Never gonna repeat that history
Lay it all to rest
Get it off your chest
Black-Heart-Beat



Behind the Song:
Sometimes life falls apart. It's in the ashes that we must decide who we really are when everything we've been finding our security in is no longer there. If we have something bigger than ourselves to fight for, then we can transform disaster into destiny. Verse Reference: Isaiah 61:1-3 He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim freedom for the captives and release from darkness for the prisoners, to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor and the day of vengeance of our God, to comfort all who mourn, and provide for those who grieve in Zion—to bestow on them a crown of beauty instead of ashes, the oil of joy instead of mourning, and a garment of praise instead of a spirit of despair.
