[Intro]
Saddle up
Armor on
She laughs, "You scared?"
I say, "Come on"
[Verse 1]
Iron on my chest
Her braid in the wind, that's blessed
She got steel on her dress
Swinging that blade like "who next?" (who next?)
Smoke on the hill, we run toward it
Whole damn world said "don't," we ignore it
She got jokes in the middle of a warzone
I got maps to a place we can call home
[Chorus]
Steel and scarlet, we ride, we ride
You and me against that night-time sky
Every claw, every fang, every ghost we fight
'Cause home is your hand wrapped in mine so tight
Steel and scarlet, we ride, we ride
Fire on the wind but our hearts won’t hide
Let the world throw shadows across our lives
We cut through dark ’til we find our light
[Verse 2]
Dragon on the ridge, big teeth, bad breath (ugh)
She just grins, "Nice smile, smell like death"
I rush left, she slides right
Tag-team terror in the moonlight
Troll at the bridge talk "pay your fee"
She says, "Sure," then sweeps the knee
Monsters all roar, we roar back louder
Boots in the mud, but we walk on power
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
[fast rap, breathy bounce]
Claws, spit, stone, stick
Every new threat, we move quick
Chainmail clatter in a heartbeat rhythm
Her laugh my shield, my holy prism
If the path gets rough, we still advance
Armor all dented but we still dance
If the sky burns red and the ground turns black
We draw one line and we don’t step back
[guitar solo with electric fiddle answering each phrase]
[Chorus]
