Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] Smoke on my banners Charred gold on the floor Throne split like old bone Cracked stone Open door Bootprints in the chapel Blood on every stair My crown in a puddle Cold steel in the air [Chorus] I wear these ashes on my iron crown (ohhh) Let your hounds come Let your blades rain down I will not kneel I will not bow Carve my name into the blackened ground [Verse 2] Your flag claws my ramparts Screams stain the dawn My sons hang from rampikes Their shadows live on You brand me with judgment Your mark on my face But I was a wildfire You were only the grave [Chorus] I wear these ashes on my iron crown (ohhh) Let your hounds come Let your blades rain down I will not kneel I will not bow Carve my name into the blackened ground [Bridge] Strike if you dare I am already gone My curse rides your heirs My war outlives this song (hey!) [Chorus] I wear these ashes on my iron crown (ohhh) Let your hounds come Let your blades rain down I will not kneel I will not bow Carve my name into the blackened ground [Outro] [Organ tolls Guitars sustain one dying chord]

Verses grind with palm-muted riffs under ominous organ chords, chorus opens into soaring, mournful leads and stacked gang shouts. Final section drops to organ and voice then slams back for a crushing, drawn-out ending chord., doom metal
