punchy
Metal with male vocals
driving mid-tempo double-kick pulse and jagged palm-muted guitars; verse rides a bleak march with low chugs and tom hits
pre-chorus opens into rising snare rolls and layered gang shouts
chorus hits wide with soaring lead lines and stacked doubles. Add reversed cymbal swells into each lift
a brief guitar squeal before the hook
and thunder-crack impacts between sections. Dark
and विशाल in the mix.

Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Blackened skies and burning rain
Hear the cries of endless pain
Broken kingdoms turn to dust
Steel and blood and shattered trust
Marching shadows through the flame
No one left to speak their name
Heaven falls beneath the night
Dragged into eternal fight
[Pre-Chorus]
I hear the thunder calling me
From the ashes I am free
No salvation left to find
Only darkness in my mind
[Chorus]
Wings of ash, take me high
Wings of ash, through the fire
Wings of ash, let me rise
Burn it down, then make me fly (make me fly)
[Verse 2]
Bones of towers line the ground
Every prayer has drowned
Crownless kings in frozen grief
Clutching at a dead belief
I walked through the smoke alone
Carved my name in stone
If the end is where we meet
Then I’ll stand before defeat
[Pre-Chorus]
I hear the thunder calling me
From the ashes I am free
No salvation left to find
Only darkness in my mind
[Chorus]
Wings of ash, take me high
Wings of ash, through the fire
Wings of ash, let me rise
Burn it down, then make me fly (make me fly)
[Bridge]
Let the ruin shake my lungs
Let the hollow break my tongue
I was built from grief and flame
I will never be the same
One more strike, one final cry
Watch the last light die
Then I tear the sky apart
With the night inside my heart
[Final Chorus]
Wings of ash, take me high
Wings of ash, through the fire
Wings of ash, let me rise
Burn it down, then make me fly (make me fly)
Wings of ash, hear me roar
Wings of ash, forevermore
Wings of ash, take me high
Burn it down, then make me fly (make me fly)
Blackened skies and burning rain
Hear the cries of endless pain
Broken kingdoms turn to dust
Steel and blood and shattered trust
Marching shadows through the flame
No one left to speak their name
Heaven falls beneath the night
Dragged into eternal fight
[Pre-Chorus]
I hear the thunder calling me
From the ashes I am free
No salvation left to find
Only darkness in my mind
[Chorus]
Wings of ash, take me high
Wings of ash, through the fire
Wings of ash, let me rise
Burn it down, then make me fly (make me fly)
[Verse 2]
Bones of towers line the ground
Every prayer has drowned
Crownless kings in frozen grief
Clutching at a dead belief
I walked through the smoke alone
Carved my name in stone
If the end is where we meet
Then I’ll stand before defeat
[Pre-Chorus]
I hear the thunder calling me
From the ashes I am free
No salvation left to find
Only darkness in my mind
[Chorus]
Wings of ash, take me high
Wings of ash, through the fire
Wings of ash, let me rise
Burn it down, then make me fly (make me fly)
[Bridge]
Let the ruin shake my lungs
Let the hollow break my tongue
I was built from grief and flame
I will never be the same
One more strike, one final cry
Watch the last light die
Then I tear the sky apart
With the night inside my heart
[Final Chorus]
Wings of ash, take me high
Wings of ash, through the fire
Wings of ash, let me rise
Burn it down, then make me fly (make me fly)
Wings of ash, hear me roar
Wings of ash, forevermore
Wings of ash, take me high
Burn it down, then make me fly (make me fly)
