Iron Ledger

Şarkı Sözleri

[Verse 1] Steel plates bite at her shoulders Mud cakes the hem of her coat An elf with a sword like a gatepost And a ledger tucked under her cloak She tracks the blue ash on the ridgeline Reads every scorch in the loam When the spell-slingers flee through the briars She drags their last breath home [Pre-Chorus] No charms, no bargains No mercy for the marked She spits at the bright little sparks And follows them into the dark [Chorus] Bring me the names, bring me the proof She hangs their bounties beneath the roof Steel for the spell and a price for the crime She hates your magic—and she’s right on time [Verse 2] The innkeeper shuts every shutter When iron steps cross the floor She leaves one coin for the stable Then kicks in the mage’s door A heavy blade rings on the flagstones A red thread runs through the snow By dawn there’s a sack at the marshal’s And another mark struck from the scroll [Pre-Chorus] No charms, no bargains No mercy for the marked She spits at the bright little sparks And follows them into the dark [Chorus] Bring me the names, bring me the proof She hangs their bounties beneath the roof Steel for the spell and a price for the crime She hates your magic—and she’s right on time [Bridge] You called it a miracle She watched the village burn You called it a blessing She counted who returned A silver ear, a severed braid A bounty paid in full Her sword stays cold beneath the rain Her hatred stays awake [Breakdown] NO SPELLS NO SAINTS NO MERCY NO ESCAPE [Final Chorus] Bring me the names, bring me the proof She hangs their bounties beneath the roof Steel for the spell and a price for the crime She hates your magic—and she’s right on time [Outro] Iron on her shoulders The ledger growing thin The road keeps throwing mages She keeps riding in
