Mithril Tongue

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Bare feet on the stone I came from the green With a ring in my hand And a fire in my breath Your name in the dark Like a rune on my skin I don’t bow to the night I sing right through it [Pre-Chorus] Oh, the road is long But I know my way Under blackened trees I hear you say [Chorus] My heart, my ring I won’t break My heart, my ring I still wake Hold the flame Hold the flame I carry gold in my name [Verse 2] The river ran cold When the crows turned near Still I kept your vow Like a blade I could hear Mud on my dress And salt on my cheek But I stood in the wind And I made it speak [Pre-Chorus] Oh, the road is long But I know my way Under blackened trees I hear you say [Chorus] My heart, my ring I won’t break My heart, my ring I still wake Hold the flame Hold the flame I carry gold in my name [Bridge] If the mountain calls I will answer loud If the night comes down I’ll wear it like a crown And when you’re far I still know the sound Of my own true song Cutting through the ground [Final Chorus] My heart, my ring I won’t break My heart, my ring I still wake Hold the flame Hold the flame I carry gold in my name My heart, my ring Say it again My heart, my ring Till the end Hold the flame Hold the flame I carry gold in my name
