[Intro — Cheerful, Tavern Warmth, Then a Dark Undertone] Yo! Welcome in, grab a seat, grab an ale, The Boar Hat's open, every mug tells a tale, Just a friendly little captain with a smile so wide — Three thousand years of wrath is what the smile has to hide... [Verse 1 — The Mask, Viking Rap, Playful] They see a kid with a sword and a grin and a joke, Pouring drinks for the kingdom while the past stays cloaked, But I walked this earth when the goddess war burned, Buried everyone I loved and watched the centuries turn, I'm the eldest son of the King of the Dark, Demon prince with a dragon carved into my mark, I traded my throne for a tavern and a vow — The most dangerous monster you'll ever meet... is pouring your drink right now! [Pre-Chorus — The Smile Cracks, Voice Dropping] But push me... test me... touch what's mine... And the laughter dies on the very same line, The mark starts spinning, the shadows grow long — You've been dancing with a dragon all along! [Chorus — WRATH, Dubstep Drop, Demonic Snarl] FULL COUNTER! Send it back a thousand fold! Wrath of the Dragon, three thousand years old! You see the smile — you should fear what it's hiding, A prince of the darkness with the storm inside him! Full Counter! Every blow returns to sender, Break my heart and the world gets a reckoning, remember — I'm the captain of the Sins, and when the wrath takes the throne, Even Hell itself learned to leave me alone! [Verse 2 — The Curse, Dark Trance, Haunted] She dies. She returns. She forgets. She dies. A hundred and seven times I've watched the light leave her eyes, Elizabeth — my goddess, my curse, my chain, Eternal life for me, eternal grave for her, same pain, And once — Danafor — when I lost her in the war, My wrath ate a kingdom, left a crater in the floor, So I smile and I joke and I keep the beast in the deep — Because the last time it surfaced, a whole nation went to sleep! [Chorus — WRATH, Dubstep Drop] FULL COUNTER! Send it back a thousand fold! Wrath of the Dragon, three thousand years old! You see the smile — you should fear what it's hiding, A prince of the darkness with the storm inside him! Full Counter! Every blow returns to sender, Break my heart and the world gets a reckoning, remember — I'm the captain of the Sins, and when the wrath takes the throne, Even Hell itself learned to leave me alone! [Verse 3 — Assault Mode, Viking Rap, Heavy] The Commandments used to whisper my name in dread, The original demon that the Demon King bred, Assault Mode rising and the sky turns black, Every Sin, every saint takes a step straight back, Ask Escanor's sun — even noon had to fight, When the captain stops smiling, say goodbye to the light, Lostvayne splits me in reflections of rage, A thousand blades writing my war on the page! [Bridge — Hypnotic Trance Breakdown, Raw and Quiet] I would have taken my father's throne... Become the very thing I ran from... If it broke her curse... I'd have paid any price... Even my own soul would have sufficed... Three thousand years is a long time to grieve... But she kept finding me — so I kept the belief... [Verse 4 — Purgatory and the End of the Curse, Building] So I walked into Purgatory and I faced down my King, Sixty years in the fire for the chance to change things, Came back with a god's own power in my hand — And used it to shatter the curses, not to conquer the land, Gave up divinity to stay by her side, Let the throne burn empty — I had already decided: No crown, no hell, no eternity of pain, Just a tavern, my wife, and a world free of chains! [Final Chorus — WRATH ETERNAL, Biggest Drop] FULL COUNTER! Send it back a thousand fold! Wrath of the Dragon, three thousand years old! You see the smile — now you know what it's hiding, A prince who beat darkness with the love inside him! Full Counter! Every blow returns to sender, Break my heart and the world gets a reckoning, remember — I'm the captain of the Sins, the Dragon, the King — And I'd burn down forever for the girl with the wings! [Outro — Tavern Again, Cheerful, Soft] Yo... welcome in... grab a seat, grab an ale... The wrath is asleep now... let the smile prevail... Three thousand years... and I'd do it all again... Every single... lifetime... amen.
