Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Up where the sky cuts cold and clear
Snow on the roofs of every prayer
Smoke from the chimneys
Copper glare
Every child born burning red hair
Stone gates scarred by a thousand wars
Old songs carved into tavern doors
We were raised on the mountain air
And the weight of the world we can bear
[Chorus]
This is Asteris
Duchy of red hair and iron wrists
We break like thunder when we hit
Lions on our flags
Teeth bared
We commit
This is Asteris
Fierce and relentless
We don’t miss
Bleeding knuckles
Unbowed hearts in our fists
Say our name
Feel it in your ribs
(Asteris)
[Verse 2]
They call us monsters in their courts
Say we were crafted only for war
But I’ve seen my mother lift a cart
Just to hold a child against her heart
I’ve bent steel bars just out of spite
Then braided flowers through my braids at night
Strong enough to crack the stone
Still afraid to be alone
[Chorus]
This is Asteris
Duchy of red hair and iron wrists
We break like thunder when we hit
Lions on our flags
Teeth bared
We commit
This is Asteris
Fierce and relentless
We don’t miss
Bleeding knuckles
Unbowed hearts in our fists
Say our name
Feel it in your ribs
(Asteris, Asteris)
[Bridge]
High in the white
Where the thin air bites
We learn to love what tries to kill us
Scars on our arms
Tremors in the night
Still we stand
Let the fear fill us
Turn it into rage
Turn it into light
Every fall just drills the will in us
[Chorus]
This is Asteris
Duchy of red hair and iron wrists
We break like thunder when we hit
Lions on our flags
Teeth bared
We commit
This is Asteris
Fierce and relentless
We don’t miss
Soft hearts hiding under iron grist
Say our name
Feel it in your ribs
(Asteris)
