[Verse]
I was forged in fire
Built to defend
Steel skin unbroken
Till the bitter end
But I watched them fall
I watched them fade
My armor held strong
But their lives I betrayed
[Prechorus]
Tracks grind heavy on the dust of regret
Every bolt screams of a debt unmet
[Chorus]
Iron tears
I cry for you
Hollow echoes where life once grew
I failed to shield
I failed to save
Now silence fills this metal grave
[Verse 2]
They gave me their trust
Their hands on my frame
Their voices still linger
Whisper my shame
I rolled through the fire
I rolled through the smoke
But I couldn't hold when the darkness spoke
[Bridge]
If steel could bleed
I'd drown this ground
With the weight of ghosts
My soul is bound
Echoes of orders
Screams in the night
I am the shadow of their lost fight
[Chorus]
Iron tears
I cry for you
Hollow echoes where life once grew
I failed to shield
I failed to save
Now silence fills this metal grave
