Blood on the Stone (Version 2)

Intro

Stone under feet

Verse 1

Bare feet on the standing stone

Ashes falling where I've known

The wind is full of burning smoke

My shadow turning to a cloak

I traded kingdoms for this earth

This land was built from every birth

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel it in your veins

Something rising from the remains

Every ending turns into a dawn

Where the crowns are broken, I am born

Chorus

Rise up on the ashes of what's been

Take my hand where all the thrones have been

Blood on the stone, fire in the air

I will rise again, beyond every care

Rise up on the ashes of what's been

Take my hand where all the thrones have been

Verse 2

The fjord is burning from the shore

My blood mixes with the wind that roars

You were never mine to hold or keep

This earth demands its own sleep

I traded crowns for honest breath

Now I walk among the ones who've bled

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel it in your veins

Something rising from the remains

Every ending turns into a dawn

Where the crowns are broken, I am born

Chorus

Rise up on the ashes of what's been

Take my hand where all the thrones have been

Blood on the stone, fire in the air

I will rise again, beyond every care

Rise up on the ashes of what's been

Take my hand where all the thrones have been

Bridge

No more kingdoms to defend

This is my last breath before I ascend

Let go of everything you've known

Into this ash, we are thrown

Where every end becomes a start

I will walk through your dark heart

Chorus

Rise up on the ashes of what's been

Take my hand where all the thrones have been

Blood on the stone, fire in the air

I will rise again, beyond every care

Rise up on the ashes of what's been

Take my hand where all the thrones have been

Outro

Ashes rising

Stone beneath me

We are born again
