[Guitar Intro] [Verse 1] By candle’s glow, the pact is signed, A fate most cruel, a plot designed. To take the throne in silent night, And cast the realm in endless fight. [Verse 2] Behind these walls, the shadows creep, The oath I swore I still must keep. No time to run, no space to hide, Yet honor will not be denied. [Pre-Chorus] Honor bound, yet torn inside, Loyalty and fear collide. Truth must rise, no time to wait, The kingdom’s doom will be our fate! [Chorus] Steel in my hands, the letters concealed, A single mistake and my fate is sealed! Lanterns are flickering, footsteps draw near, The weight of betrayal, the burden of fear! A kingdom at risk, the prince unaware, The future in ruins if I do not dare! Through halls of deceit, in silence I tread, If I am discovered, I’ll join the dead! [Solo] [Verse 3] Torches alight, the halls feel tight, I slip through doors beneath the night. A traitor’s grasp upon my sleeve, If I should fall, none will believe. [Verse 4] The guards stand close, my breath runs thin, But I won’t let them drag me in. The time will come, I must move fast, To see the dawn and make this last! [Pre-Chorus] Honor bound, yet torn inside, Loyalty and fear collide. Truth must rise, no time to wait, A kingdom’s doom is on my blade! [Chorus] Steel in my hands, the letters concealed, A single mistake and my fate is sealed! Lanterns are flickering, footsteps draw near, The weight of betrayal, the burden of fear! A kingdom at risk, the prince unaware, The future in ruins if I do not dare! Through halls of deceit, in silence I tread, If I am discovered, I’ll join the dead! [Long Guitar Solo] [Pre-Chorus] Honor bound, yet torn inside, Loyalty and fear collide. Truth must rise, no time to wait, A kingdom’s doom is on my blade! [Chorus] Steel in my hands, the letters concealed, A single mistake and my fate is sealed! Lanterns are flickering, footsteps draw near, The weight of betrayal, the burden of fear! A kingdom at risk, the prince unaware, The future in ruins if I do not dare! Through halls of deceit, in silence I tread, If I am discovered, I’ll join the dead! [End]
