[Intro]
(Pulsing synth bass enters, followed by a shimmering, pizzicato string riff)
[Haunting Ethereal female vocals]
[Verse 1]
The mist is rising on the shore
I see the silver hand once more
You were the king, I was the light
Vanished in the green of night
The armor clattered on the stone
Now I’m walking here alone
[Chorus]
Excalibur...the water’s getting cold
The story’s finished, the lie is told
Like a spark in the Dragon’s breath
We’re dancing on the edge of death
Under the iron sky, I’m calling out your name
(Calling out your name)
[Verse 2]
Merlin’s charms are fading fast
The future’s buried in the past
Gold and crimson, blood and wine
I felt your heartbeat next to mine
But the lake is pulling at your sleeve
It’s so hard for the soul to leave
[Chorus]
Excalibur...the water’s getting cold
The story’s finished, the lie is told
Like a spark in the Dragon’s breath
We’re dancing on the edge of death
Under the iron sky, I’m calling out your name
[Bridge]
[The beat drops out, leaving only a haunting Juno-60 synth pad]
The sword is cast into the deep
A promise that we couldn’t keep
One land, one king...
[Drum machine kicks back in with a heavy gated snare]
One heart, one sting!
[Synth Solo]
[Atmospheric epic Prophet-5 Synth Solo]
[Chorus]
Excalibur...the water’s getting cold
The story’s finished, the lie is told
Like a spark in the Dragon’s breath
We’re dancing on the edge of death
Under the iron sky, I’m calling out your name
(Calling out your name)
[Outro]
In the mist (I see you)
In the dream (I feel you)
The Dragon... the Breath...
Excalibur...Excalibur...Excalibur...
The waters getting cold...
[Fade out with shimmering arpeggios and the sound of water]
