Intro – Soft folk instruments, slow drums, wind blowing
Verse 1 – Female Vocalist, soft and mournful
The fields are silent, stained in flame,
The banners torn, no one left to name.
Shadows stretch where heroes bled—
We buried the brave, but not the dread.
Verse 2 – Male Vocalist, low and solemn
Steel lies rusted, runes turned cold,
Our stories cracked, but still retold.
Though shattered, hearts still beat below—
In embers warm, our vengeance grows.
Pre-Chorus – Both Singers, rising together
We lost the dawn, but not the spark,
We ride for those who fell in dark…
Chorus – Full Band + Gang Vocals
🔥 Ashes and arrows! We rise once more!
From ruin and sorrow, we ride to war!
No gods remain to heed our cries—
So we become the storm, and dark the skies!
Ashes and arrows! Our hearts still burn—
We fight for the fallen—it's their return!
Verse 3 – Female Vocalist, stronger now
I held the blade, I heard them scream—
But still I stand in shattered dream.
The night did not consume our flame—
We’ll etch their names in wrath and rain.
Verse 4 – Male Vocalist, defiant
No king remains to guard the gate,
No priest to pray, no hands of fate.
We are the oath, the arrow loosed—
From death’s own grip, we break the noose!
Pre-Chorus – Harmonized
Though hope may bleed, it will not drown,
We wear the ash and take the crown…
Chorus – Full Power, Gang Vocals with Harmony
🔥 Ashes and arrows! We rise once more!
Through echoes of silence, we roar and soar!
With thunder behind us, and fury ahead,
We carry the names of the lost and the dead!
Ashes and arrows! Our time has come—
This is not the end—this is the drum!
Bridge – Instrumental Solo / Fiddle + Electric Guitar Duel
(A fast, melodic break that blends Celtic fiddle with electric fury, representing sorrow turning into momentum.)
Final Chorus – Half-time Intro, Then Double-Time Explosion
🌫️ Ashes and arrows… we rise… once more…
🔥 ASHES AND ARROWS, WE RIDE TO WAR!
Ashes and arrows! The hour is late—
But still we march, we carry fate!
No flame extinguished, no song unsung—
We fight for the voices silenced too young!
Ashes and arrows! To dust and dawn—
Together we fall, together we’re gone…
