A handful of two-headed coins. 
The bite of a two-headed snake. 
A rebirth that came to destroy. 
A coldness that you couldn't shake. 

A vibrant void of colour. 
A summer full of white. 
Swear I won't tell another 
what we did to live through the night. 

Where this wild wind blows is where I'll go, 
and you'll breathe me in, into your bones. 
And you'll feel me close, but never know 
that I'm the ache inside your bones. 

The hum of a city collapsing; 
the song of a bird that can't fly. 
I learned to survive by dancing 
through the hour it was my time to die. 

But empires are built up on ruins, 
and resistance from unwilling martyrs; 
tomorrow demands revolution; 
we are all prey in this game of the archers. 

Where this wild wind blows is where I'll go, 
and you'll breathe me in, into your bones. 
And you'll feel me close, but never know 
that I'm the ache inside your bones. 
The snow will fall, but it melts away; 
ain't the only thing the ground will take. 
I'm your endless fire, but I didn't stay. 
Now you're cold as ice, and that ice will break. 

Falling down without a sound and 
twisting all the games we play. 
You think you have me surrounded, 
but I'm the one who got away. 

Snow is falling, the ice is coming; 
every hand you touch turns cold. 
But I'm a fire, and I'll keep burning. 
I'll smoke you out, I'll kill the cold.  

Falling down without a sound and 
twisting all the games you play. 
You think you have me surrounded, 
but I'm the one who got away. 

Snow is falling, the ice is coming; 
every hand you touch turns cold. 
But I'm a fire, and I'll keep burning. 
I'll smoke you out. I'll kill the cold. 

Where this wild wind blows is where I'll go, 
and you'll breathe me in, into your bones. 
And you'll feel me close, but never know 
that I'm the ache inside your bones. 
The snow will fall, but it melts away; 
ain't the only thing the ground will take. 
I'm your endless fire, but I didn't stay. 
Now you're cold as ice, and that ice will break. 

Now you're cold as ice, 
and ice always breaks.  

'The Ice Will Break' - 01/01/24
Swear I won't tell another what we did to live through the night.

I saw that 'The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes' was available to stream on TV this morning, so I was inspired to write a song for it, lol.
