[Verse 1 – Low, playful, close to the mic]
You brought a little iron to a storm, dear.
Did somebody tell you you’d be warm here?
You’re talking loud about your father’s name,
Like that’s gonna save you from a frozen flame.
Go on and draw that pretty little steel,
Let’s see if you bleed the way you feel.
I’ve had colder winters in my bed—
I like my wolves hungry and well-fed.
[Pre-Chorus – Snare builds, playful swagger, bass swell]
Step a little closer if you’re brave enough,
Thought you boys from the valley liked it rough.
Take your swing, make your claim...
You won’t be the first to forget your name.
[Chorus – Big, melodic, bold & cheeky belt]
Oh, you think you're gonna tame the gale?
Put a collar on the wind and set your sail?
Honey, you can try, you can beg, you can pray,
I’ll take your little ship and blow it all away!
Sit down, drink your mead, mind the cold—
I don't break for crowns of gold.
(Chanted hook with a smirk: Oh-na-na, not today...)
[Verse 2 – Groovy, rhythmic strut]
You say you want a queen to keep the hall,
To mend your shirt and wait until you fall.
Baby, I’m the one who runs the ridge,
I lit the fire that burned your wooden bridge.
Look at your knees shaking in the mud,
Pale as the snow, afraid of your own blood.
Don't pout now, you got what you desired—
You wanted a spark, you bought the entire fire.
[Bridge – Stripped drum stomp, whisper right in the ear]
(Spoken with a laugh)
Aww... is that all you brought?
(Deep sung tease)
Run on home before the shadows creep.
The woods are mine, and the frost runs deep.
Tell your brothers that the hunt is done—
You met the storm, and she won.
[Chorus – Full power, mocking and anthemic]
Oh, you think you're gonna tame the gale?
Put a collar on the wind and set your sail?
Honey, you can try, you can beg, you can pray,
I’ll take your little ship and blow it all away!
Sit down, drink your mead, mind the cold—
I don't break for crowns of gold.
[Outro – Fading groove, tagelharpa riff, teasing hum]
(Low vocal chuckle)
Better luck next winter, sweetheart.
(Whistle fading into the wind)
