Verse 1 I held the weight of kingdoms, Shadows bowed beneath my blade. Every step a calling, Every breath a war I made. But the silence lingers longer, Than the battles ever did. Who am I when there’s no one left To guard, to save, to win? Chorus When the sword falls silent, And the echoes fade away, What becomes of the hero, When there’s no more war to wage? If my story’s only written In the blood of darker days, What remains of me When the sword falls silent? Verse 2 Zelda’s voice once guided, Through the ruins, through the flame. Now the wind is quiet, And it does not speak my name. I have lived as legend’s vessel, Carved from duty, bound by fate. But the man inside this armor Is a stranger I can’t face. Chorus When the sword falls silent, And the echoes fade away, What becomes of the hero, When there’s no more war to wage? If my story’s only written In the blood of darker days, What remains of me When the sword falls silent? Bridge Am I more than just a shadow Of the battles I have won? A ghost without a master, A blade without the sun. If peace is the horizon, Then where do I belong? I was made for saving kingdoms… But not for moving on. Final Chorus When the sword falls silent, And the echoes fade away, What becomes of the hero, When there’s no more war to wage? If the world no longer needs me, Will I ever find my place? Or be lost in quiet sorrow… When the sword falls silent.
