[Verse 1] Silver hair across the briars Cold eyes cut the winter air At your gate the black wolves gather You can feel them waiting there [Pre-Chorus] You drew a line in ash and iron You called it yours to keep But I have crossed the frozen border And I have come to wake the deep [Chorus] I am the queen beneath the pines The red mark on your silver shrine When the old moon turns its face You will know who owns this place [Verse 2] Bats wheel over broken towers Fog unthreads the fallen wall You keep watch with borrowed courage Still you hear the night birds call [Pre-Chorus] No chain can hold the storm inside me No prayer can close the door The pack moves close behind my shoulder And the dark asks for no more [Chorus] I am the queen beneath the pines The red mark on your silver shrine When the old moon turns its face You will know who owns this place [Bridge] Keep your lantern, keep your key Keep the name you gave to me I was never yours to save I was born beyond the grave [Final Chorus] I am the queen beneath the pines The red mark on your silver shrine When the old moon turns its face You will know who owns this place [Outro] The wolves fall still The branches bow The night is mine And it is now
