Burn The Ships Lyrics - For King & Country

How did we get here? 

All castaway on a lonely shore 

I can see in your eyes, dear 

It's hard to take for a moment more 

We've got to 

Burn the ships, cut the ties, send a flare into the night 

Say a prayer, turn the tide, dry your tears and wave goodbye 

Step into a new day 

We can rise up from the dust and walk away 

We can dance upon the heartache, yeah 

So light a match, leave the past, burn the ships 

And don't you look back

Don't let it arrest you 

This fear is fear of fallin' again 

And if you need a refuge 

I will be right here until the end 

Oh, it's time to 

Burn the ships, cut the ties, send a flare into the night 

Say a prayer, turn the tide, dry your tears and wave goodbye 

Step into a new day 

We can rise up from the dust and walk away 

We can dance upon the heartache, yeah 

So light a match, leave the past, burn the ships 

And don't you look back 

Photos 

So long to shame 

Walk through the sorrow 

Out of the fire 

Into tomorrow 

So flush the peals 

Face the fear 

Feel the wave disappear 

We're coming clear 

We're born again 

Our hopeful lungs can breathe again 

Oh, we can breathe again 

Step into a new day 

We can rise up from the dust and walk away 

We can dance upon the heartache, yeah 

So light a match, leave the past, burn the ships 

And step into a new day 

We can rise up from the dust and walk away 

We can dance upon the heartache, yeah 

So light a match, leave the past, burn the ships 

And don't you look back 

And don't you look back 

And don't you look back
