Iron Crown (wersja 2)

Verse 1

Iron crown on the chest that was mine — now it's yours

Ran to your Jarl and you laughed while I burned

Said my rage would turn ice — said I'd never return

Hela's table spread thin meat for the weak

I'm not the boy who walked under the long-fire

I'm the storm, and the storm doesn't seek

You traded honor for a place at your side

Sitting warm while your mother burned

Pre-Chorus

Now the wolf-howl is rising — now you hear my name

Every winter has a reckoning, every bloodline has a claim

Norns wrote it in ash before I took my first breath

You can't outrun it, you can only get hit

Fate cuts the path of the one with the cold, black hand

Chorus

Iron crown — iron throne — this is how it's done

Iron crown — iron throne — every debt gets won

Verse 2

Your shieldman fled while I held mine still

You stood on his shoulders and you watched me take my fill

Thought the snow would cover what your hands did, what your tongue said

Hela's tables don't forget a single dish

Every axe in the north remembers every blow

Iron crown on your head but it was never yours to know

Pre-Chorus

Now the wolf-howl is rising — now you hear my name

Every winter has a reckoning, every bloodline has a claim

Norns wrote it in ash before I took my first breath

You can't outrun it, you can only get hit

Fate cuts the path of the one with the cold, black hand

Chorus

Iron crown — iron throne — this is how it's done

Iron crown — iron throne — every debt gets won

Bridge

No wolf-howl for you tonight — no warm fire to claim

Only the snow and the ice, only the weight of your name

Every great warrior walks with death as his shadow

You thought a title was stronger than a blood vow's law

Hela's table won't feed you once I take my turn

Chorus

Iron crown — iron throne — this is how it's done

Iron crown — iron throne — every debt gets won
