Owl City - Embers Lyrics
There were days when each hour was a war I fought to survive
There were nights full of nightmares and I dreaded closing my eyes
There were skies that burst open with a downpour to drown me alive
But the world took a spark like a match in the dark
And the fire brought me to life
So I'm fanning the flames to climb so high
'Cause theres no other way we can stay alive
'Cause we're burning bright
As we all unite
And when it's all said and done
We'll shine like the sun
So don't let the fire die
And we'll watch the sky
As it fills with light
Whatever you do, just don't let the fire die
And you'll find there'll be mornings
When the ashes and embers are cold
But you'll fight with a passion
And you'll never stop 'cause you know
Yeah you know, it gets better
And your story is yet to be told
Every push, every shove, every war, every love
Yeah, the coals are beginning to glow
So I'm fanning the flames to climb so high
'Cause theres no other way we can stay alive
'Cause we're burning bright
As we all unite
And when it's all said and done
We'll shine like the sun
So don't let the fire die
And we'll watch the sky
As it fills with light
And though the embers are new
Whatever you do, just don't let the fire die
Don't let the fire die
It gets better
Just don't let the fire die, no
'Cause we're burning bright (burning bright)
As we all unite
And when it's all said and done
We'll shine like the sun
So don't let the fire die
And we'll watch the sky (watch the sky)
As it fills with light
And though the embers are new
Whatever you do, just don't let the fire die
And though the embers are new
Whatever you do, just don't let the fire die
Don't let the fire die.

November 2019 anyone?
2019 and I'm still using this song in my next video...
REPORTING IN!!!
It really is #Owlsome.
SCP-1936 niggas be like:
Dont let the fire die
Adam queria muito ir até vc muito obrigado as seus músicas foi que me acordou para a vida estáva com problemas sérios e nas suas cantões foi que me ajudou a seguir em frente obrigado.
I’m 19 now, listening to owl city brings back all the memories back then. It’s just beautiful
scp 1936, this plays during recovered camera footage as a dubstep remix while everyone is dying to strange entities
Lovely songs 😍🤩❣️❣️
Someone heard this song and thought I should make a cosmic horror story as SCP where three gods have a battle royal and one of them listins to the dubstep version of this song
SCP 1936
Here after reading scp-1936.
DALEPORT BATTLE ROYALE
Sorry but this is really bad why the elder gods would chose this song for the sound track for the war in daleport is most lik6why they need to be contained
Tru 😂
Daleport has its theme song.
Where can i find the dubstep version of this song? It has been very popular since the 90s here at Daleport, but i cant seem to find it anywhere on YouTube
Edit: nevermind just found it
Can u link it to me
@The Yellowflash https://youtu.be/EsveJB9DM6Y
GRADUATION SONG HAHAHAHAHAHA
I watch this after read scp 1936 daleport. It is state that during the incident, the dubstep version of ember by owl city was played during the chaos at the town hall....
No one?.... Just me then....
@TaMonk i both watch and read it (after watch the video just to make sure) is that count? 😂
Well I liked this song long before I watched the scp. But I came back to this song because of the scp lol.
Still waiting on Sheogorath to pop up somewhere.....
I also found the song because of the SCP Foundation (also for some reason it reminds me of Henrietta Lacks)
THE FLAME
One of those songs where you just get that “triangular entity should be playing this over a city halls speakers during a god battle royale” type of vibe
@Nemesis M&M I might check it out sometime, thanks for the info.
@samuel liljeholm No problem.
yea but like..make it a dubstep version. that would totally fit the vibe
Even before it was created because [REDACTED]
Why are you guys mentioned me every time?
Why do I feel like it's a song for Jesus...Faith
Me listening to this from excitement of me graduating hell ((elemantary school))
And going to middle schook where all my friends are.
You know what? Owl City songs encouraged me to face different problems in life!! THANK YOU "OWL CITY" FOR ALL OF YOUR SONGS!! I WILL BE HOOTOWL TILL THE END!!
Been looking for it since 2016 and I'm so glad I finally found it!
The song is underrated.
2018 anyone? 😁✌️✌️
2018 November?🤔🤔🤔
Great lyrics just like Shooting star
You should here that one
is the song called embers with lyrics or just embers?
I miss when people were making more music like this
Owl City is like that one singer that brings a smile to everyone who listens to him.
Still listening 2018 :) :)
This follows the tune of Lincoln Parks "and the sun will rise for you" song
this song represents dark souls very well imo
beautiful music 😍😘
It's great
At first when I heard this song I wasnt sure if I liked it. Now I cant get enough!
😍😍👏👏👏👍👍❤❤💛💛💯💯🔥🔥🔥
well i guess i just found the theme song of my life XD
makes my ears bleed
1:36 Now this doesn't have a Blink 182 feel ..... ?
Am I the only one who can't help but think of Darksouls when listening to this song?
The Ghost in the machine your not the only one
scp-wiki, anyone?
This song is great for depression
Awesome background image
2018 an I still fucking love this song ❤
I love this song so much its gotten me through a lot
My fire is almost out not joking seriously not joking i swears it
I love the midsummer station
To me, this song is the iconic song of this album.
If I see everyone fighting with each other, I will get up on stage, make everyone crowd around meh, and sing this only song to try to unite them all together.
Owl city 4 lyfe
No joke
💚💛💜💚💛💜💗💜💜💗💜
Lets all dodge some knifes!
*4 screech*
OK, major geekgirl here, but I can't help but think about the Rebel Alliance (particularly in the Star Wars: Rebels series) and the Resistance from Star Wars when I see these lyrics. XD
I let the fire die.(jk) =^.^=
love it
I came from salmon fiveyears
400th subscriber.
I kind of want an "acoustic" version of this. The acoustic versions of shooting star and gold where fantastic.
This is great of course.
Getting "How To Train your Dragon" vibes here
Fernozzle in 5 years

@Dawng Kima *4 screech BFB 13 style*
Hi there from Singapore! I wish you'd have a wonderful week =)
This song is amazing and really inspires me, though a lot of his songs do. ^^
Who all loving the new song "All My Friends"?
EMBERSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
Oh my goodness, this song is more beautiful than I remembered it!
the fire in this song means youre believed in god dont let it die coz when its all said and done youve shine like the sun so dont let youre believed in god be gone the artist fanning you through his music its his way to make youre fire stay alive....such a good music with glorios meaning
For. Some odd reason I can see myself playing dark souls 3 with the song playing
just don't let the fire die
So basically as long as the campfire in my yard doesn't die I am allowed to?
Hey guys, I just want to say, I'm feeling pretty good about my interpretation of this Song.This is about Adams life walking with Jesus Christ.
Keeping that fire for God in your heart hot, Fanning the flames with God's word and Prayer
I almost let my fire for writing music die..
still listening to this amazing song in 2017✌
I didnt know that Adam Young AKA Owl City played Dark Souls!!!???
31 people let the fire die
Fuck ads
that picture reminds me of City of Ember.
Nykster it reminded me of city of ember as well
guys what is the meaning of there background?
i will sing it to my church... cause i know that if we all unite were all burning bright
I REALLY want to see a videogame RPG with a setting like the pic. Just tell the basic laws of physics to (REDACTED) Themselves because ______________(REALLY REDACTED)_______________ Up their _______(ALSO REDACTED)_____ With a bunch of water and (REDACTED) Fish and stuff. Anyway it could be really cool to have an RPG set in someplace like a (STILL REDACTED) Escher painting. Preferably NOT a game like MIST though, more Skyrim. But all fucking weird and shit.
I sang this at a school talent show. I got the loudest, most deafening applause anyone could've ever received. ;D;
*CHEERS* you won?
awesome!!!!!!!
@Kathryn Gifford Yeah :D
Im pretty sure that this song is about his Faith in Christ.
