Wolves at the Walls 2 (वर्ज़न 2)

Verse

Iron teeth in the gates where the ash trees lean to one side

Frost on the blade I'm holding when the storm turns inside

Crows line up at my shoulder like a dark procession

Hear them calling out my name — that's my one condition

Lay siege to the frozen river, draw your bow and let it go

Blood in the snowflakes falling where the wolf-pack makes their show

No quarter given — no mercy asked for on this ground

Every man you hit will carry back the sound

You can hear them running towards me through the cold blue light

Iron shields held up against the wind that cuts like a knife

I'm not here for the glory, I'm here to write my name in red

Count every skull that's falling where the wolves are fed

I've been walking out this battle for days and nights that blend into one

Every man I meet is ready to die before he bends his head down

This isn't war — it's not even a fight

It's a reckoning, a counting of all that we hold tight

Chorus

Wolves at the walls! (Hu-ha!) Wolves at the walls!

Break the gate, let them in! (In!) Break the gate, let them in!

Every last one will die before they leave this place alone

This is how it ends — this is how we go home

Bridge

This isn't war, it's a reckoning of all that we hold tight

Blood for every word I spoke on this frozen night

I write my story here in the ice and the steel

Leave nothing behind but the echo that I feel

Chorus

Wolves at the walls! (Hu-ha!) Wolves at the walls!

Break the gate, let them in! (In!) Break the gate, let them in!

Every last one will die before they leave this place alone

This is how it ends — this is how we go home
