Verse 1
Steel shrieks against stone
I wake to the scream
Crimson bleeds through black
I don't remember falling down
Dust spills from my shoulders
Chains drag behind my feet
My hand finds the grip of my blade
It's still warm when I breathe
Pre-Chorus
Thump goes my heart
Inside this hollow chest
Thump goes my heart
I should be dead but I'm not
Chorus
I died once
Nobody told me
I came back swinging
(The bell never rang)
I died once
The tower remembers
Now I don't stop
Until the silence comes
Verse 2
The door opens on its own
Machines crawl the walls
Red lights howl like wounded things
The siren splits the hall
I hear the running footsteps
A million boots and claws
The mask they wear has no face
And no one knows the cause
Pre-Chorus
Thump goes my heart
Against this ancient plate
Thump goes my heart
Let them see what I create
Chorus
I died once
Nobody told me
I came back swinging
(The bell never rang)
I died once
The tower remembers
Now I don't stop
Until the silence comes
Bridge
No kingdom left to serve
No lord to call my name
Just this blade that's older
Than any realm or flame
Steel meets steel
Bone against the grind
Purpose doesn't matter
When you're built to kill in kind
Breakdown
Kill
Kill
Kill
(Hands up)
Kill
Kill
(Stomp the floor)
Kill
Kill
Kill
Chorus
I died once
Nobody told me
I came back swinging
(The bell never rang)
I died once
The tower remembers
Now I don't stop
Until the silence comes
Outro
Thump
Thump
Thump
Still beating
