[Verse 1]
Under black basalt skies
Gorthalon wakes in flame
Iron scales, ember eyes
The mountain learns his name
He claws through ancient frost
And breaks the old stone seam
One wing splits dawn apart
One breath ignites the stream
[Pre-Chorus]
Hear the ground begin to shake
Hear the towers groan and bow
Every oath the brave ones made
Turns to ash below his brow
[Chorus]
Gorthalon, rise again
Gorthalon, burn the chain
Fire crown, thunder jaw
King of the broken wall
Gorthalon, rise again
Gorthalon, take the plain
When he roars, kingdoms fall
Gorthalon owns it all (Gorthalon!)
[Verse 2]
He storms the redwood pass
With gold and ruin on his back
His shadow drinks the snow
Then leaves a smoking track
The arrowheads all bend
The shields split at the seam
He laughs in molten breath
And turns the sky obscene
[Pre-Chorus]
Hear the ground begin to shake
Hear the towers groan and bow
Every oath the brave ones made
Turns to ash below his brow
[Chorus]
Gorthalon, rise again
Gorthalon, burn the chain
Fire crown, thunder jaw
King of the broken wall
Gorthalon, rise again
Gorthalon, take the plain
When he roars, kingdoms fall
Gorthalon owns it all (Gorthalon!)
[Bridge]
Now kneel before the storm
Or stand and meet the flare
The old world ends in cinders
And he is still right there
No blade can hold his dawn
No gate can seal his sky
He lifts the dark on wings
And drags the fire high
[Final Chorus]
Gorthalon, rise again
Gorthalon, burn the chain
Fire crown, thunder jaw
King of the broken wall
Gorthalon, rise again
Gorthalon, take the plain
When he roars, kingdoms fall
Gorthalon owns it all (Gorthalon!)
