[Intro]
Ash burns deep beneath the skin
Hear the fire wake again
[Verse 1]
A knight stands tall at the gate
Made of duty, made of fate
They honor shield and iron grail
Never see the fear you veil
A red flash moves behind your eyes
A shape that wakes, then slips from sight
You grip the line and seal the strain
Then lock the monster down again
[Pre-Chorus]
No one hears the storm below
No one sees how far it goes
[Chorus]
When the flame climbs up your heart
And every breath begins to break
You hold the night from falling apart
You fight for what the dawn may take
If you should fall, if you should burn
If all you are comes undone
You reach for light, then turn and turn
And still you feel you’re not the only one
[Outro]
Not the only one
[Extended Verse 2]
Through Ironveil, the iron bells
Ring over roads and citadels
Oil and mana hold the walls
While Church and crown keep watch on all
But somewhere past the law and stone
A distant pulse answers your own
A name once lost, a vow half-spent
A warmth that follows where you went
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Something stirs inside the dark
A quiet light, a hidden spark
[Chorus 2]
When the flame climbs up your heart
And every breath begins to break
You hold the night from falling apart
You fight for what the dawn may take
If you should fall, if you should burn
If all you are comes undone
You reach for light, then turn and turn
And still you feel you’re not the only one
[Bridge]
The past still calls
The truth still waits
Behind the ash, behind the gates
A shadow moves
A hand remains
A love survives beneath the pain
[Final Chorus]
When the flame climbs up your heart
And every breath begins to break
You hold the night from falling apart
You fight for what the dawn may take
If you should fall, if you should burn
If all you are comes undone
You reach for light, then turn and turn
And still you feel you’re not the only one
[Outro 2: extended version]
