Eyes Like Broken Ice (version 2)

Verse

Old blood runs thin through a hollow vein

Frozen in the chest where a heartbeat should remain

Silver armor cracked like a broken crown

Now I wear my silence, not this skin I wear now

Every name the fire forgot still sings in me

A thousand winters carving out a melody

I walked past the fjords where the giants learned to fall

Nothing is eternal but I am standing tall

Pre-Chorus

Tell me what it means to be remembered at all

To leave this ash upon the ground before I fall

Chorus

So here’s my song: a scream in frozen snow

A flame that refuses to let go

Even if no one answers when I call

I sing for every silence, standing tall

Verse

Runes on ice still glowing like embers left behind

The wolf I saw was not a myth but the shape of my own mind

Valhalla burned down before I could arrive

Now the only hero standing is the ash that survived

I built my own throne from what the gods forgot

Carved it out in silence, nothing more to owe or rot

Ragnarok was just a name for something real — fire

The quiet left behind after the flames go higher

Pre-Chorus

Tell me what it means to be remembered at all

To leave this ash upon the ground before I fall

Chorus

So here’s my song: a scream in frozen snow

A flame that refuses to let go

Even if no one answers when I call

I sing for every silence, standing tall

Bridge

Odin took his eye but left me mine — the same blue as the night

Now every star that fell becomes a constellation of fight

I don’t need Valhöll; this ground is my own battlefield

Every heartbeat in this chest has been shaped by everything I’ve concealed

Chorus

So here’s my song: a scream in frozen snow

A flame that refuses to let go

Even if no one answers when I call

I sing for every silence, standing tall
