[Verse 1]
Woke up in graveside armor
Rust and fear on my tongue
Every step
Another bloodstain
Tiny flask
Shaking hands
I miss every lunge
They crush me like I’m nothing again
Ghosts of my last ten deaths
Laugh in the fog at the edge of the field
I swing
I miss
I fall
And still I crawl back
Still I crawl back
[Chorus]
Grind the Elden Lords
Tear their thrones apart
Every failure feeds the fire in my heart (my heart)
I was born to break
Every fate they hoard
I get stronger when I’m dying on the sword
Grind the Elden Lords
[Verse 2]
Ash in my lungs
I’m learning patterns and pain
Read their rage like a scripture
Roll through the lightning
Dancing under the flame
Frame by frame I redraw the picture
They said I’m maidenless
Fine
I’ll marry the scars on my skin
Let them call me faithless
I turn my broken bones into a grin (ha!)
[Chorus]
Grind the Elden Lords
Tear their thrones apart
Every failure feeds the fire in my heart (so hard)
I was born to break
Every fate they hoard
I get stronger when I’m dying on the sword
Grind the Elden Lords
[Bridge]
How many times must I burn to rise?
How many nights in this storm-torn sky?
Golden crowns
You will bow to me
I am rage
I am will
I am tarnished and free (yeah)
[Chorus]
Grind the Elden Lords
Tear their thrones apart
Every failure feeds the fire in my heart (my heart)
I was born to break
Every fate they hoard
I get stronger when I’m dying on the sword
Grind the Elden Lords
Grind the Elden Lords (hey!)
