When the Flame Learns to Rest
[intro]
In ancient stone the night stood still
The sky held breath above the hill
One final spark a gentle light
Before the quiet turned to night
[verse]
From frozen roads and distant lands
We came with dreams in open hands
Flags became the tales we shared
No borders left just souls laid bare
[verse]
The crowd’s loud roar like prayers arose
Each heartbeat where one truth still glows
Under the lights we learned at last
Fame may fade but meaning lasts
[pre-chorus]
Not the fastest not the tall
Not the ones who never fall
But the ones who chose to stay
When the light began to fade
[chorus]
When the flames learn how to rest
We find what matters through the test
The world once sang as one that night
With friends beneath the starry light
[chorus]
If the ice should melt away
And the lights begin to fade
Hold this truth deep in your soul
We are one though not whole
[verse]
These old stones recall it all
Every rise and every fall
Hands reached past words unknown
And found we were not alone
[pre-chorus]
Not the fastest not the tall
Not the ones who never fall
But the ones who chose to stay
When the light began to fade
[chorus]
When the flames learn how to rest
Let every heart give out its best
If the world should drift apart
Remember vows made at the start
[outro]
The fire sleeps in time’s embrace
Its warmth we carry through all space
Until we meet where new lights rise
Beneath the glow of future skies
