[Verse]
Bat wings slice through midnight sky
City screams but he won't die
In shadows deep where nightmares lie
Gotham cries he’s the reply
[Chorus]
Dark knight rises cold as steel
Justice sharp enough to feel
Fear the Bat his grip is real
Heroes made of iron will
[Verse 2]
Echoes crunch on gravel street
Broken dreams beneath his feet
Masked avenger they'll all meet
Heartbeat syncopates each beat
[Bridge]
Fear the darkness can't deny
Eyes that pierce the alibi
Relentless he won't comply
Heroes never say goodbye
[Chorus]
Dark knight rises cold as steel
Justice sharp enough to feel
Fear the Bat his grip is real
Heroes made of iron will
[Verse 3]
Shadows fall the skyline burns
Twisted villains he discerns
In the flame the hero turns
In his soul the city yearns
