[Verse 1]
I wore your name like smoke
Through the blackened morning
You left your rings in the ash
Like a warning
I kept the door unlocked
Kept the hurt on hold
Now the room feels colder
Than a stone
[Pre-Chorus]
And I heard you say
We were built to break
Then you walked away
Like it meant nothing
Now the ground gives way
Under what we made
But I’m still standing
Still standing
[Chorus]
In the fire of Mordor
I let you go
In the fire of Mordor
I watch it glow
You said my heart would fall
But I won’t fold
In the fire of Mordor
I’m taking back my soul
(taking back my soul)
[Verse 2]
Your voice still scratches
At the edge of night
Like a blade on iron
Under moonless light
You took the best of me
Then you called it love
Now I shake the dust off
From my gloves
I don’t need your mercy
I don’t need your spell
I was made for rising
Not for hell
[Pre-Chorus]
And I heard you say
We were built to break
Then you walked away
Like it meant nothing
Now the ground gives way
Under what we made
But I’m still standing
Still standing
[Chorus]
In the fire of Mordor
I let you go
In the fire of Mordor
I watch it glow
You said my heart would fall
But I won’t fold
In the fire of Mordor
I’m taking back my soul
(taking back my soul)
[Bridge]
Let the dark come close
Let it call my name
I’ve walked through the wreckage
I can bear the flame
Every crack you left
Turns to gold tonight
I’m not your ruin
I’m my own light
(my own light)
[Final Chorus]
In the fire of Mordor
I let you go
In the fire of Mordor
I watch it glow
You said my heart would fall
But I won’t fold
In the fire of Mordor
I’m taking back my soul
(taking back my soul)
