[Verse 1] There is no fire where I stand No screams carved into stone Only silence in the frost And a road that ends alone I called my name into the dark The dark did not reply Only earth against my back And the slow unlearning of why [Pre-Chorus] They said the fall would hurt like flames They said the end would roar But nothing comes with thunder here Just steps across a frozen floor [Chorus] Hel does not scream She does not fight She does not take you in the night Hel does not burn She does not chase She waits until you stop the race No chains No throne No final breath Just quiet Cold And rest [Verse 2] No gates of bone, no judging eyes No balance weighed in gold Only memories laid down Like armor growing old No angels turn their heads away No demons claim my name Only stillness counting time Until hope forgets the flame [Pre-Chorus] They asked me where the end would be Above or far below I learned it doesn’t matter when You’re ready to let go [Chorus] Hel does not scream She does not lie She does not promise reasons why Hel does not rise She does not fall She never had to call at all No fear No crown No borrowed breath Just silence Cold And rest [Outro – Lullaby] Close your eyes The road is done The long night ends where it begun No dream No pain No last goodbye You’re home the moment hope runs dry
