Crystals in My Bones

[Verse 1]
I was once a girl filled with innocence
A love of life and wilful ignorance

The mages they came
And life was never the same

Imprisoned within arcana prime
Life that was never mine

I was twisted from a girl into a monster
A fusion of magic, rabbit and wonder

They bound their crystals to my bones
Turned my body into something they owned
A living weapon, arcane design
A fractured soul in a vessel not mine

A dreamer forced awake too soon
Under a cold and endless moon
Still I whisper deep inside
Of fields where fireflies collide

[Chorus]

[Whisper]
Fireflies…..

[Sing]
I am the bulwark against the storm
The girl from which everything was torn
Thrust into a fight that was never mine
Not the devil nor divine

I have seen through all your lies
There is no room for compromise
Going to remake a world filled with fireflies

[Whisper]
Fireflies…..

[Verse 2]
Chains broke with a violent sound
Arcane echoes shaking the ground
Power surged through crystal veins
Fuelled by fury, loss and pain

I tore apart their sacred halls
Watched their empire start to fall
Every spell they cast on me
Now returns in symmetry

But inside the rage I keep
A fragile heart that still can weep
A little girl who’s lost her way
Still wishing for a softer day

I fight so none will feel this pain
No more souls in arcane chains
No more lives remade by force
No more broken, twisted course

[Chorus]

[Whisper]
Fireflies…..

[Sing]
I am the bulwark against the storm
The girl from which everything was torn
Thrust into a fight that was never mine
Not the devil nor divine

I have seen through all your lies
There is no room for compromise
Going to remake a world filled with fireflies

[Whisper]
Fireflies…..

[Bridge]

I was scared and so alone
When you took me from my home
I was just a dreamer
But you changed me, made me meaner

I want to go back to sleep
Pretend none of this was all that deep

But I’m here now
I won’t let you disavow
What you did to me
It won’t be history

As my axe blade slices you in half
The last thing you hear will be my laugh

[Laughter]

[Verse 3]
Now I walk with scars that shine
Every fracture now is mine
No more shame in what I’ve been
I’ve survived the world within

More than something they designed
More than magic intertwined
I am hope that still remains
Growing through the deepest pain

Filled with dreams of brighter skies
Soft light dancing — fireflies
Not just something torn apart
But a girl with a beating heart

I’ll build a world where none must hide
Where innocence can still survive
No more cages, no more lies
Only fields of fireflies

[Chorus]

[Whisper]
Fireflies…..

[Sing]
I am the bulwark against the storm
The girl from which everything was torn
Thrust into a fight that was never mine
Not the devil nor divine

I have seen through all your lies
There is no room for compromise
Going to remake a world filled with fireflies

[Whisper]
Fireflies…..
