[Intro: Heavy, grinding guitar riff, slow and powerful, driving industrial rhythm] [Verse 1] A shadow falls across our light, A beast of ancient, bitter night. Its breath upon your fragile skin, The venom seeks to crawl within. From twisted roots or broken past, A curse designed to truly last. [Pre-Chorus] It claws at walls we built so high, It screams its lies into the sky. Your heart, it trembles, I can see, But you are safe, here, next to me. [Chorus] Do not fear its fiery gaze, Through these dark and choking haze. I am the steel, the cutting edge, Your sworn, unbreakable pledge. When shadows rise, and terror screams, I am the force that intervenes! I am the Dragonsbane! [Short Instrumental] [Verse 2] It whispers doubt into your ear, It feeds on every rising fear. It builds its walls of cold disdain, And tries to drive you quite insane. Its heavy chains, they bind you tight, To drag you back into the night. [Pre-Chorus] It claws at walls we built so high, It screams its lies into the sky. Your heart, it trembles, I can see, But you are safe, here, next to me. [Chorus] Do not fear its fiery gaze, Through these dark and choking haze. I am the steel, the cutting edge, Your sworn, unbreakable pledge. When shadows rise, and terror screams, I am the force that intervenes! I am the Dragonsbane! [Short Instrumental] [Bridge - intensification, drums pound, slower and heavier] Let it unleash its bitter sting, No victory its hatred brings! For I will stand, a wall of might, And tear its darkness from the light! My blood, my breath, my very soul, Will make us whole, will make us whole! [Instrumental: Wailing Guitar Solo - Heavy, distorted, melodic, brutal, tension] [Chorus] Do not fear its fiery gaze, Through these dark and choking haze. I am the steel, the cutting edge, Your sworn, unbreakable pledge. When shadows rise, and terror screams, I am the force that intervenes! I am the Dragonsbane! Do not fear its fiery gaze, Through these dark and choking haze. I am the steel, the cutting edge, Your sworn, unbreakable pledge. When shadows rise, and terror screams, I am the force that intervenes! I am the Dragonsbane! I am the Dragonsbane! [Outro] Dragonsbane... my name. Dragonsbane... the flame. Dragonsbane... for you. We'll break through... we'll break through! [Heavy, grinding riff fade, final crashing chord]
