Taken - ORIGINAL SONG

The Ember Anthem

[Verse 1] It’s cracking —

The bond and the threads and the

Life we were making

We’re breaking —

The wrongs and the rights, we just fight

It’s heartbreaking

We’re faking —

The fondness, we’re slipping

The masks — they are splitting

I’m fading —

The songs and the dances

A chorus of cracking

[Chorus]

The light has been taken

Away

Away

Away

Away

The light has been taken

[Verse 2]

I’m aching —

My bones and my innards

Still craving familiar

I’m training —

Your stones can’t blister

I quiver, won’t shatter

Hands shaking —

The hope starts to glimmer

Shed the caterpillar

I’m waking —

I float and flicker

And then start to whisper:

[Chorus]

The light won’t be taken

Away

Away

Away

Away

The light won’t be taken (repeat 4x)

MY light won’t be taken
