[Verse 1] Under the barrow door Cold wax on the stone His sword in a red cloth A hand on the bone Rats in the gutter Still bow as we pass The torches go dim When the iron locks clash [Pre-Chorus] Hear the deep hall groan Hear the old sigil wake One wrong breath, one wrong step And the dead start to shake [Chorus] Deep down under Black crown below Don't wake the king old bones will haunt Ancient sealed crypt silent Keeper of darkness The throne still waits In the dark, he stares [Verse 2] His armor is green With the mold of the years A prayer on his lips And a ring made of tears Gold bowls split open A feast turned to dust We came for the relic Now the relic will judge us [Pre-Chorus] Hear the deep hall groan Hear the old oath break One wrong name, one wrong prayer And the grave walls awake [Chorus] Deep down under Black crown below Don't wake the king old bones will haunt Ancient sealed crypt silent Keeper of darkness The throne still waits In the dark, he stares [Bridge] He opened one eye Like a coal in the pit The dead on the banners Came crawling to it I dropped my blade And I knew, then I knew The dark was a door And it had learned my name [Final Chorus] Deep down under Black crown below Don't wake the king old bones will haunt Ancient sealed crypt silent Keeper of darkness The throne still waits In the dark, he stares Deep down under Black crown below The hall takes all And gives none back
