Iron and Leather

Verse 1

Crimson sand and cutting wind

A jagged blade against your shin

I swung the steel with bitter intent

Before we knew what this union meant

I sought your throat and you my head

We traded blows until we bled

Pre-Chorus

Dust on the tongue

Steel against skin

Where the duel ends

The blood runs thin

Chorus

Shadow and stone we stand together

Bound by the iron and leather

Brother of mine through the blackest weather

I raise the mug to the giant hand

Side by side in this hollow land

The assassin and the mountain man

Verse 2

Now you laugh when the hammers fall

I ghost through the shadow on the wall

Cracking skulls like brittle dry bone

Never walking this path alone

Two halves of a broken blade

Best mistake we ever made

Pre-Chorus

Mist in the air

Fists in the dirt

Heal the old scar

Forget the hurt

Chorus

Shadow and stone we stand together

Bound by the iron and leather

Brother of mine through the blackest weather

I raise the mug to the giant hand

Side by side in this hollow land

The assassin and the mountain man

Bridge

Under the moon we trade our stories

Mocking the ghosts and the hollow glories

You swing the trunk

I weave the hex

Onto the bridge to the very next

The giant laughs

The shadow sings

Lifting the weight that the fighting brings

Chorus

Shadow and stone we stand together

Bound by the iron and leather

Brother of mine through the blackest weather

I raise the mug to the giant hand

Side by side in this hollow land

The assassin and the mountain man

Chorus

Shadow and stone we stand together

Bound by the iron and leather

Brother of mine through the blackest weather

I raise the mug to the giant hand

Side by side in this hollow land

The assassin and the mountain man
