[Verse 1]
I split the dawn with a graveyard grin
Black cloak dragging, let the war begin
Skulls in ranks, all eyes lit green
Dust on the boots where the dead have been
Mummies unwrap in a linen storm
Vampires wake in a blood-red form
Wraiths on the left like a fever haze
And the earth shakes hard when I call the haze
I don’t march with a flag or prayer
I got cold hands and a throne in the air
Bone by bone, they rise on cue
Say my name and the tomb breaks through
[Pre-Chorus]
Hear that rumble
Cold and low
Lock the gates
Let them know
I raise the dead
Then I let them go
[Chorus]
Bone crown march, bone crown march
We take the night, then we tear it apart
Bone crown march, bone crown march
Dead in my army, dark in my heart
Bone crown march, bone crown march
Say my name now, watch them all start
[Verse 2]
Undead dragons cut through the smoke
Jaws of ash and a throat of oak
Zombies shamble with iron eyes
Hunger shining in cathedral skies
Skeletons clash in a million bones
Mummies crawl out of broken stones
Vampire blades in a silver flash
Wraiths at my heel in a graveyard dash
Every crypt got a door kicked in
Every coffin opens wide again
I don’t need light, I don’t need breath
I ride with the ones that cheated death
[Pre-Chorus]
Hear that rumble
Cold and low
Lock the gates
Let them know
I raise the dead
Then I let them go
[Chorus]
Bone crown march, bone crown march
We take the night, then we tear it apart
Bone crown march, bone crown march
Dead in my army, dark in my heart
Bone crown march, bone crown march
Say my name now, watch them all start
[Bridge]
Kneel to the seal on the coffin door
I’ve seen hell back off from the war
One command and the whole world cracks
The dead come forward, never look back
[Breakdown]
Claw marks on the altar
Ash in the air
Undead coming
Everywhere
Bone crown
Bone crown
They answer
When I call them down
[Final Chorus]
Bone crown march, bone crown march
We take the night, then we tear it apart
Bone crown march, bone crown march
Dead in my army, dark in my heart
Bone crown march, bone crown march
Say my name now, watch them all start
Bone crown march, bone crown march
The grave obeys when I play my part
