Darkness On His Heels

[Intro] Snow on black stone Footprints vanish as he goes Twin blades breathing In the cold In the glow [Verse 1] Born in caverns carved like scars Purple fires Iron bars He was raised to bow To break To love the lash To learn the ache But his heart turned from that shrine Every promise felt like lies In the riot of that spider's web He dreamed of open skies [Chorus] Drizzt Do’Urden Running from the dark Violet shadows reaching for his heart He carved his name In the bark of the world One lone ranger Silver hair unfurled Drizzt Do’Urden Walking through the fear Blades like stories only he can hear [Verse 2] Stone halls echo with his past Family names like broken glass Brothers Mothers Poisoned vows Every blessing felt like knives somehow So he cut a path through fate Past the hunters at the gate Chose a different kind of pain To feel the sun To stand in rain [Chorus] [Bridge] They see white hair They see red eyes They see a rumor dressed in lies He stands quiet at the innroom door Hand on hilt Boots on floor "I am not what you were told" Low voice Steady Controlled "I'm the friend who holds the line When the wolves come for your home at night" [soft choir] Outcast Outlast Out in the open at last [Chorus] [Outro] Footprints fading in the snow Just the wind that seems to know A shadow smiles The forest yields Darkness On his heels
