Lyrics
[Intro]
[War-horns calling, distant thunder rolls]
[Verse 1]
Ash on the wind
Iron in the dawn
Ravens on the shieldwall
Tearing at the gone
Frost on the banners
Blood in the snow
Old oaths carved
Where the cold rivers flow
[Chorus]
Ravens and kings
Once ruled everything
On stone and bone
They carved our fate
Ravens and kings
Old iron crowns sing
Their black wings
Still shadow our gates
[Verse 2]
Thrones built crooked
From splintered spears
Crows on the antlers
Of long-frozen deer
Feast smoke rising
From skull and from stave
Drunk on the thunder
Of wave after wave
[Chorus]
Ravens and kings
Once ruled everything
On stone and bone
They carved our fate
Ravens and kings
Old iron crowns sing
Their black wings
Still shadow our gates
[Bridge]
We are the echo
Of boots on the ice
We are the question
The dead asked the night
Who holds the sword now?
Who dares to speak?
When feather and crown
Still circle the weak (hey!)
[Chorus]
Ravens and kings
Once ruled everything
On stone and bone
They carved our fate
Ravens and kings
Old iron crowns sing
Their black wings
Still shadow our gates
[Outro]
[Instruments drop to drums and low chant]
Ravens and kings
Ravens and kings
Still rule
Our dreams
