Thunder Crest

Текст песни

[Intro] From iron hills where the cold winds crest A banner rose above the rest Three flame-born hearts, one oath confessed Thunder answered from the west [Verse 1] They crossed the pass at the fall of snow With broken shields and a furnace glow No crown, no gold, no promised throne Just names carved deep in the ancient stone The clans had fled, the watchfires died But three stood firm on the mountain side They raised their hands to the storm-lit sky And swore the old world would not survive [Pre-Chorus] Hear the war drums under the ground Feel the black clouds gathering round When the last red standard bends The vow begins where the battle ends [Chorus] Thunder Crest, rise from the flame Let every valley remember the name Through ash and thunder, through blood and rain We carry the founders’ oath again Thunder Crest, hearts unchained Their final words still shake the plains When the last breath leaves our chest Say our name — Thunder Crest! [Verse 2] At dawn they faced the hollow king And heard the mountain’s granite sing One blade was cracked, one banner torn Yet none would kneel to the coming storm The eldest fell by the eastern gate The second laughed in the jaws of fate The youngest climbed where the lightning burned And watched the ruined banners turn [Pre-Chorus] Hear the war drums under the ground Feel the black clouds gathering round When the last red standard bends The vow begins where the battle ends [Chorus] Thunder Crest, rise from the flame Let every valley remember the name Through ash and thunder, through blood and rain We carry the founders’ oath again Thunder Crest, hearts unchained Their final words still shake the plains When the last breath leaves our chest Say our name — Thunder Crest! [Breakdown] Stand in the storm! Stand in the storm! The mountain remembers! The mountain remembers! No grave can silence No tyrant can sever The oath of the founders Thunder Crest forever! [Bridge] When the drums go quiet and the fires grow low When the old stones crack beneath the snow Pass the blade onward, let the vow be known A kingdom is built from the words we own [Final Chorus] Thunder Crest, rise from the flame Let every valley remember the name Through ash and thunder, through blood and rain We carry the founders’ oath again Thunder Crest, hearts unchained Their final words still shake the plains When the last breath leaves our chest Say our name — Thunder Crest! [Outro] Our name! Thunder Crest! Our name! Thunder Crest remains!
