Steel in the Sky

Helms in a row

Breath in the cold

Sun on the blades

Blood in the snow

Standard torn at the edges

Ravens circle

Hungry eyes

Fear is mud on my greaves

Still

I drag it as it dries

Old prayer stuck in my throat

Leather creaks

My fingers shake

Names of brothers in my teeth

Steel will answer when we break

Raise your shield

Hold the line

Steel in the sky

We collide

If I fall

Carve my sign

Deep in the bark where we trained as child

Steel in the sky

Steel in the sky (hey!)

Warhorn splits the morning

Ground begins to tremble

Sing

See their charge

A dark wave

Hear my captain’s voice just ring

“Forward

Boy

There is no later”

Boot to boot

We crash

We scream

Iron kisses flesh and splinters

Red erupts where we had dreams

Knee in the mud

Teeth full of ash

Friend on the ground

Eyes turned to glass

I lift his blade

Grip it with mine

Two hearts

One hand

Last ragged line (ooh)

Raise your shield

Hold the line

Steel in the sky

We collide

If I fall

Carve my sign

Deep in the bark where we trained as child

Sing my name

Drink it loud

Over the smoke

Over the crowd

If we burn

Let it shine

Steel in the sky till the end of time
