[Verse] A child born under a blood-red sky Innocence fading with each whispered lie Her smile a dagger his heart to sell The deviless planned his rise too well [Prechorus] Whispers in the dark Promises sweet She taught him power She taught defeat [Chorus] A lesson learned too well From heaven’s grace he fell But chains she forged for him Now bind her at his whim [Verse 2] Each battle won left his soul in chains Her laughter echoed in his growing pain A crown of fire his brow adorned A hero turned tyrant Her prophecy born [Prechorus] But he learned her game He learned her creed Her poison became his power to feed [Chorus] A lesson learned too well From heaven’s grace he fell But chains she forged for him Now bind her at his whim
