Crown of Flames

Lyrics

[Intro] Ash on the altar, thunder in the stone A crown of black iron calls me home [Verse 1] You drew a silver circle in the dust Said, “Step inside if you still trust” The old bells cracked beneath the rain I took your hand and wore the flame [Pre-Chorus] No more kneeling, no more chains We turn the lock, we wake the gates [Chorus] Raise the banner, let the kingdom hear We were forged in fire, we were born severe You and I, with the storm in our veins Take the night, take the throne, break the chains Raise the banner, let the mountain shake Every vow we made is a path we take When the dark comes calling our names We answer back with a crown of flames [Verse 2] Black river running under ruined towers You kept a match through the dead hours I saw your face in the crystal well A living spark in the mouth of hell [Pre-Chorus] No more hiding, no retreat We bring the thunder to the king’s front seat [Chorus] Raise the banner, let the kingdom hear We were forged in fire, we were born severe You and I, with the storm in our veins Take the night, take the throne, break the chains Raise the banner, let the mountain shake Every vow we made is a path we take When the dark comes calling our names We answer back with a crown of flames [Bridge] If the sky falls, let it fall behind us If the wolves run, let them run and find us There is one road through the frozen sea And your hand is the spell that carries me [Final Chorus] Raise the banner, let the kingdom hear We were forged in fire, we were born severe You and I, with the storm in our veins Take the night, take the throne, break the chains Raise the banner, let the mountain shake Every vow we made is a path we take When the dark comes calling our names We answer back with a crown of flames [Outro] Crown of flames Crown of flames The gates are open—remember my name
