Rat King

가사

[Intro] One mark on the wall, then another beside A quiet little promise passed hand to hand [Verse 1] We found the old tunnels beneath the bright plaza Dust on the helmets, a map with no names You said, “Stay close,” as the red lamps came on I kept your last laugh like a match in the rain [Pre-Chorus] No crown, no throne, no chosen one Just six small shadows moving as one [Chorus] Rat King, Rat King, keep the circle tight When one goes down, we bring them back to light A hundred little footsteps, one stubborn heart We slip through the dark, but we don’t break apart Rat King, Rat King, carry the tale A pack in the passage, a bite in the veil [Verse 2] The old hands swear it was born from a joke A sidearm passed round with a grin and a dare Then every lost fireteam learned what it meant To have one more friend when the end filled the air [Pre-Chorus] No lone wolf boast, no victory pose We count every name before the door blows [Chorus] Rat King, Rat King, keep the circle tight When one goes down, we bring them back to light A hundred little footsteps, one stubborn heart We slip through the dark, but we don’t break apart Rat King, Rat King, carry the tale A pack in the passage, a bite in the veil [Bridge] [Radio Voice] “Two signals ahead.” “Make it three.” [Bridge] You took the left flank, I took the stair Someone kept watch while the others repaired The legend was never the weapon alone It was the hand that refused to let go [Final Chorus] Rat King, Rat King, keep the circle tight When one goes down, we bring them back to light A hundred little footsteps, one stubborn heart We slip through the dark, but we don’t break apart Rat King, Rat King, now the halls know our name Not one in the dark, but a pack in the flame Rat King, Rat King, carry the tale We hunt as a family; we never turn pale [Outro] One mark on the wall, then another beside The next lost Guardian won’t walk alone tonight
