Thunder Crest Remains

Lyrics

[Intro] Ash on the banners, rain on the stone Five iron hearts made the mountain their throne Before the last gate split under the flame They carved one vow into thunder and name [Verse 1] From the black ridge they carried the spark Lanterns of iron through forests gone dark Maeve with the hammer, Rowan with flame Cael at the watchtower, calling the name Eira read omens in ravens and snow Darragh held fast where the cold rivers flow No crown could command them, no grave could contain The oath of the founders still rings in the rain [Pre-Chorus] When the horns shook the valley When the red banners fell They stood at the edge of the kingdom With one final word to tell [Chorus] Say our name, say our name Thunder Crest remains Through the ash, through the flame Thunder Crest remains Raise the stone, wake the flame Let the whole world know our name Say our name, say our name Thunder Crest remains! [Verse 2] The enemy surged like a tide through the pass Steel struck the shields and the old oaks cracked The founders were bleeding, their stronghold undone Yet none turned away from the setting sun Maeve gave her blade to the hands of the young Rowan’s last fire burned bright on his tongue Cael rang the bell till the tower gave way Eira faced the storm, Darragh held the gate [Pre-Chorus] When the horns shook the valley When the red banners fell They stood at the edge of the kingdom With one final word to tell [Chorus] Say our name, say our name Thunder Crest remains Through the ash, through the flame Thunder Crest remains Raise the stone, wake the flame Let the whole world know our name Say our name, say our name Thunder Crest remains! [Breakdown] No king, no chain No grave, no rain Can drown the vow We carry it now Say it low! Thunder Crest! Say it loud! Thunder Crest! From the roots to the sky From the oath to the cry [Bridge] And when the young ones ask what became of the brave Point to the black mountain, point to the names Five marks in the granite, five sparks in the rain The founders are gone, but the crest still remains [Final Chorus] Say our name, say our name Thunder Crest remains Through the ash, through the flame Thunder Crest remains Raise the stone, wake the flame Let the whole world know our name Say our name, say our name Thunder Crest remains! [Outro] Say our name! Say our name! Thunder Crest remains! Thunder Crest remains!
