[Verse 1]
There’s a shadow on the stone
Silhouette against the cold
All the stories that they tell
Couldn’t hold the weight you hold
Boots frozen to the battlement
Eyes burning through the snow
Every whisper in the courtyard
Says your name soft
Jon Snow
[Pre-Chorus]
You don’t wear a crown
But the crowd still bows
When the night winds howl
You don’t back down (oh)
[Chorus]
You’re the man on the wall
Dressed in black
Holding every ghost attack
Every fear that they recall
Breaks against you
Breaks and falls
You’re the heartbeat of this place
Armor hiding all your scars
You’re the king they never named
But we feel it in our hearts
You’re the man on the wall
You’re the man on the wall
[Verse 2]
You have bled for every stranger
You have stayed when others ran
You made brothers out of traitors
By the strength of open hands
Every child that sleeps in safety
Owes their quiet dreams to you
They will never see the hauntings
That you stare each night into
[Pre-Chorus]
You don’t claim the throne
But you stand alone
When the night grows sharp
You’re the shield of stone (hey)
[Chorus]
You’re the man on the wall
Dressed in black
Holding every ghost attack
Every fear that they recall
Breaks against you
Breaks and falls
You’re the heartbeat of this place
Armor hiding all your scars
You’re the king they never named
But we feel it in our hearts
You’re the man on the wall
You’re the man on the wall
[Bridge]
If the phantoms pass through fire
If the kingdom starts to shake
I will stand beside your shadow
Let the darkness fall and break
You were never just a soldier
You were always something more
Every soul that lives here knows it
When they say your name once more
(Jon Snow, Jon Snow)
[Chorus]
You’re the man on the wall
Dressed in black
Holding every ghost attack
Every fear that they recall
Breaks against you
Breaks and falls
You’re the heartbeat of this place
Armor hiding all your scars
You’re the king they never named
But we feel it in our hearts
You’re the man on the wall
You’re the man on the wall
(Oh, Jon Snow)
You’re the true king after all
