[Intro – Elizabeth Hale: | whispered over synth pulse]
City lights break like shattered glass rain
Every step we take rewrites the pain
Ash in the circuits, smoke in the wire
We learned your world was built on fire
And every silence you left in the ground
Is a promise coming back around
[Verse 1 – Richard:]
Steel in the sky, wind through the frame
I’ve watched your kind rename the blame
Call it fate, call it law, call it divine
But it all bleeds red when the clock hits time
You thought we’d kneel, you thought we’d break
But every loss just sharpens what we make
No prayers left, no mercy to find
Just cold calculation in the mind
I don’t ask why the ashes fall
I just measure what survives it all
[Pre-Chorus – Elizabeth:]
You called them gods, you called them fate
But gods still fall when they hesitate
[Chorus – Both:]
We killed another dragon
Tell your master we’re coming for him
Not in whispers, not in fear
But loud enough for the end to hear
We killed another dragon
And we didn’t even blink
So light your throne, lock your gates
We’re closer than you think
We killed another dragon
And the sky won’t stay the same
Every wing that drops tonight
Learns to fear our name
[Verse 2 – Elizabeth Hale:]
I wore your silence like a second skin
Let it crawl where my thoughts had been
Watched empires rot behind closed doors
While the world still begged for more
You taught me how to hold my breath
You taught me how to walk past death
But you forgot what comes after that—
The ones who learn don’t look back
[Verse 3 – Richard:]
Cuelebre was hunted where the dark runs thin
Driven down where even fear caves in
Not in glory, not in flame or sky
But in the place where legends go to die
Found in the hollow he tried to hide inside
Where even his terror had nowhere to ride
No roar left burning, no storm to command
Just the end of a name in the dirt and sand
[Pre-Chorus – Richard:]
So I stopped asking what is right
And started counting what survives the night
[Chorus – Both:]
We killed another dragon
Tell your master we’re coming for him
No hymns left, no crown of lies
Just truth reflected in our eyes
We killed another dragon
And the world won’t stay the same
Every shadow learns too late
We already know its name
[Bridge – spoken duet:]
[Elizabeth:] He thinks we’re small.
[Richard:] He thinks we’ll stop.
[Elizabeth:] Let him believe it longer.
[Richard:] Let him see what it costs.
[Elizabeth:] Empires forget footsteps returning.
[Richard:] We’re not footsteps anymore. We’re the collapse.
[Final Chorus – Both:]
We killed another dragon
Tell your master we’re coming for him
Every roar just feeds the flame
Every shadow learns our aim
We killed another dragon
And the message is clear and cold—
We’re not done with your empire
We’re coming for the throne
We killed another dragon
And we didn’t even blink
So light your throne, lock your gates
We’re closer than you think
[Outro – Elizabeth:]
Tell him… Cuelebre found no glory in hiding.
Only silence waiting inside it.
