[Intro]
[clean electric guitar arpeggio, acoustic guitar strumming]

[Verse 1]
[clean electric guitar, acoustic guitar, bass, and light drums]
I know the smell of woodsmoke now like never before
The sound of children playing near an open door
The sky is just the sky again and nothing more
But I have seen what presses down behind its floor

[Verse 2]
[distorted electric guitar enters, drums become more driving]
These streets were built by hands that never left this ground
These people sleep without the weight of what I've found
They pass each other easily in the faded light
Not knowing what is watching from the other side of night

[Pre-Chorus]
[heavy distorted guitar riffs, powerful drums]
Let them keep their stories by the fire
Let them never know the truth behind the tell

[Chorus]
[full band, high-energy, soaring vocals]
This is the world that breathes without a name
Where the sun comes up the same as yesterday
Where the gods are just a whisper in the wind
And the giants never followed where I've been
I came back through but I came back changed, Midgard
Hold me in your ordinary flame

[Instrumental Break]
[distorted guitar solo, driving drums and bass]

[Verse 3]
[music drops back to clean guitar and acoustic guitar]
I watched a man today who laughed without a care
A woman hung her washing in the morning air
They do not know that somewhere past the edge of sight
The mountains breathe and hammers ring throughout the night

[Verse 4]
[distorted guitar and drums build up again]
I wanted to reach out and tell them what I know
Of realms that burn and realms that freeze below
But what would it give them, fear of something far
Better they should live beneath their simple stars

[Pre-Chorus]
[heavy distorted guitar riffs, powerful drums]
Let them keep their stories by the fire
Let them never know the truth behind the tell

[Guitar Solo]
[extended melodic and technical distorted guitar solo, full band accompaniment]

[Outro]
[soaring vocals, heavy instrumentation]
I set this down so someone finds it when I'm gone
Not as a warning and not as a battle song
Just as a voice that walked where voices shouldn't go
And the giants never followed where I've been
I came back through but I came back changed, Midgard
Hold me in your ordinary flame
This is the world that breathes without a name
Where the sun comes up the same as yesterday
Where the gods are just a whisper in the wind
And the giants never followed where I've been
I came back through but I came back changed, Midgard
You are my ordinary flame
