[Verse 1]
Claws in the mud
Smoke in my hair
Half-wild heartbeat
Snarling at the air
You stepped through the fire
Laughing at the sky
Blue runes burning
In the corner of your eye
[Chorus]
You said
"Fight beside me
Not above"
Hand on my shoulder
Calling me your love
Not a weapon
Not a curse
Just a girl in the dirt
You fell with a smile
Like you already knew
I swore on the blood and the broken moon
I would carry you further than this war ever could
Ash in my fangs
Holding on to you
[Verse 2]
Steel
Then silence
Your shield cracked through
You pushed me backward
Took the lance meant for two
You whispered
"Promise"
Breath tasting like rain
"I walk on ahead
You follow through the pain"
[Chorus]
You said
"Fight beside me
Not above"
Hand on my shoulder
Calling me your love
Not a weapon
Not a curse
Just a girl in the dirt
You fell with a smile
Like you already knew
I swore on the blood and the broken moon
I would carry you further than this war ever could
Ash in my fangs
Holding on to you
[Bridge]
I tear through the dark
On the oath of your name (hey)
Every scar I earn
Spells your shape in the flame
If I ever forget
How you looked in that light
Let my monster heart stop
On the edge of that night
[Chorus]
You said
"Fight beside me
Not above"
Hand on my shoulder
Calling me your love
Not a weapon
Not a curse
Just a girl in the dirt
You fell with a smile
Like you already knew
I swore on the blood and the broken moon
I would carry you further than this war ever could
Ash in my fangs
Holding on to you
