Rat King, Rise

Tekst utworu

[Intro] Six in the chamber, one name passed low A small silver promise where the lost winds blow [Verse 1] You found me beneath the rusted stair A cold little circle, a dare in the air No banner, no throne, no oath to keep Just a click in the dark and a road too steep [Pre-Chorus] When the fire draws near, when the brave ones fall A hand finds a hand in the blackened hall [Chorus] Rat King, rise—small teeth, iron will One shot together, make the whole world still Rat King, run where the red stars burn The last one standing brings the rest back home [Verse 2] They tell of a pack that the war could not break Of laughter in ruins, of vows made awake A relic passed on through the smoke and the dust A crown with no kingdom, a weapon of trust [Pre-Chorus] If your light goes out, let the circle remain We answer the silence; we shoulder the pain [Chorus] Rat King, rise—small teeth, iron will One shot together, make the whole world still Rat King, run where the red stars burn The last one standing brings the rest back home [Bridge] No lone wolf survives where the cold winds bite No name carved in stone can outlast the night We vanish, we gather, we strike as one A hundred small shadows beneath one sun [Guitar Solo] [Breakdown] Hold fast! Stay close! One spark! One oath! [Final Chorus] Rat King, rise—small teeth, iron will One shot together, make the whole world still Rat King, run where the red stars burn The last one standing brings the rest back home Rat King, rise—let the old tales roar The few stand together, and the few are more [Outro] Six in the chamber, one name passed low A small silver promise—and onward we go
