[Intro] Beneath the stone, we shaped the steel, Two hands gave form to what we'd dreamed. We forged a blade that learned to feel, And woke the heart within its gleam. [Verse 1] Deep in the Dungeon, beneath the stone, We worked the steel beneath the flame. Each strike rang out with its own tone, Until the blade recalled its name. No crown was carved upon its face, No oath to make the nations kneel. We left our mark in one small place, And gave our purpose to the steel. [Pre-Chorus] Beyond the walls, the watchfires died, The guardians held their narrow ground. They stood with frightened souls beside, And heard the darkness gathering round. [Chorus] THE BLOOD OF DRAGONS! Awake within the steel! THE BLOOD OF DRAGONS! Let every heartbeat feel! We raise the blade against the night, Its ancient voice begins to rise. The dragon comes to guard the light, With living fire across the skies! [Verse 2] The youngest guard stood near the gate, His hands were shaking on the wall. He watched the shadows congregate, Yet would not leave the ones who'd fall. He raised the blade above his head, A blue reflection crossed the stone. The sleeping dragon heard the tread, And answered with a thunderous tone. [Pre-Chorus] A thousand wings could not compare, To what emerged beyond the height. The dragon climbed the midnight air, And spread its wings across the light. [Chorus] THE BLOOD OF DRAGONS! Awake within the steel! THE BLOOD OF DRAGONS! Let every heartbeat feel! We raise the blade against the night, Its ancient voice begins to rise. The dragon comes to guard the light, With living fire across the skies! [Bridge] It did not come to claim a throne, Or make the frightened kneel in shame. It stood beside the ones alone, And held the darkness with its flame. The guards looked up and found their will, The children saw the morning blue. The dragon watched above them still, Until the sun came breaking through. [Final Chorus] THE BLOOD OF DRAGONS! Alive within the steel! THE BLOOD OF DRAGONS! The strength that we can feel! We raised the blade against the night, And watched the dragon claim the skies. The ones we guarded found the light, And stood to greet the sun's first rise! [Outro] The Dungeon forged it. The blade awoke. The dragon answered. The darkness broke. THE BLOOD OF DRAGONS!
