Wolves at the Solstice Altar (versione 2)

Verse

Amber crowns upon the threshold stone

Fleeting summer's final light has flown

The great altar burns where our forebears prayed

Fire and iron in a sacred shade

Steel-rimmed eyes against the golden glow

Visors cracked, the visage starts to show

Your hand on mine where the flames rise tall

We stand as one before the solstice wall

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel it building? The heat we can't contain

Every heartbeat driving us towards that burning frame

The old gods watch us from the edge of flame

Will we answer their call or bear our own name

Chorus

Wolves at the solstice altar, where shadows bleed and burn

We will hold this moment till the embers turn to yearn

Steel against starlight, iron and the flame

This is where the ritual starts, where the past gives way

Verse 2

Bare feet on the stone as we raise our hands

The engines hum beneath a dying sun's command

Your eyes flash silver in this golden haze

We're not just hunters tracking time's last phase

Together we are the fire that remains

Burning bright against the autumn's stain

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel it building? The heat we can't contain

Every heartbeat driving us towards that burning frame

The old gods watch us from the edge of flame

Will we answer their call or bear our own name

Chorus

Wolves at the solstice altar, where shadows bleed and burn

We will hold this moment till the embers turn to yearn

Steel against starlight, iron and the flame

This is where the ritual starts, where the past gives way

Bridge

Not their battle standard but our own we carry

Every sunset turns a little more scarred, every starry sky a little less wide

The fire that made us here we'll keep as our own

Forever chasing sunsets that refuse to fold

Chorus

Wolves at the solstice altar, where shadows bleed and burn

We will hold this moment till the embers turn to yearn

Steel against starlight, iron and the flame

This is where the ritual starts, where the past gives way
