Mages in the Mire

Letra

[Intro] Steel on her shoulders, ash in her hair A sword like a gatepost cuts through the air [Verse 1] Elf girl riding where the ward-stones split Mage marks nailed to a bounty writ She kicks in the door, lets the spellfire fail One cold swing and the wizard goes pale [Pre-Chorus] No charms, no circles, no borrowed flame She spits in the dirt at the sound of its name [Chorus] Hunt them down—mages in the mire! Steel-armored hunter, cut the spellwire! Heads for the bounty, stacked one by one! She hates your magic—there’s nowhere to run! [Verse 2] Iron rings clatter on her belt at dawn A purse gets heavier; another name’s gone She keeps no trophy but the coin and the proof A severed head wrapped up under rough cloth [Pre-Chorus] No charms, no circles, no borrowed flame She spits in the dirt at the sound of its name [Chorus] Hunt them down—mages in the mire! Steel-armored hunter, cut the spellwire! Heads for the bounty, stacked one by one! She hates your magic—there’s nowhere to run! [Bridge] You call it wonder—she calls it rot! You raise your hands—she gives you one shot! Fry scream: No spell survives! No mage walks free! The elf with the sword Has come for the fee! [Breakdown] Iron! Edge! Bounty paid! Magic dies Beneath her blade! [Final Chorus] Hunt them down—mages in the mire! Steel-armored hunter, cut the spellwire! Heads for the bounty, stacked one by one! She hates your magic—she’s never done! [Outro] Steel on her shoulders, ash in her hair No magic left in the cold night air
