[Intro] [Whispered] Beneath the iron mountain, the sleeping thunder turns [Verse 1] Black clouds gather over shattered stone Old runes crack beneath the throne A pulse like war beneath the ground The sealed heart answers every sound [Pre-Chorus] Raise your eyes, the sky is torn From the silence, wrath is born [Chorus] Rise, thunder dragon, rise Split the heavens, blind the eyes With a crown of storm and flame Burn the fear that spoke your name Rise, thunder dragon, rise Let the ancient judgment fly When your wings eclipse the sun The age of trembling comes undone [Verse 2] Steel banners fall in sheets of rain Valleys ring with the mountain’s pain No king can chain the living storm No wall can hold its final form [Pre-Chorus] Hear the roar through blood and bone The world will learn what you have grown [Chorus] Rise, thunder dragon, rise Split the heavens, blind the eyes With a crown of storm and flame Burn the fear that spoke your name Rise, thunder dragon, rise Let the ancient judgment fly When your wings eclipse the sun The age of trembling comes undone [Breakdown] [Growled] Break the seal Crush the crown Drag the thunder Down, down, down [Screamed] No surrender! No retreat! Let the storm awaken underneath! [Bridge] Small sparks gather in the rain One bright heart can break a chain If the night demands a sacrifice We will meet it with our eyes [Final Chorus] Rise, thunder dragon, rise Split the heavens, blind the eyes With a crown of storm and flame Burn the fear that spoke your name Rise, thunder dragon, rise Let the ancient judgment fly When your wings eclipse the sun The age of trembling comes undone [Outro] [Clean vocal] Above the ruins, morning comes The thunder fades, but we remain [Growled] The dragon wakes again
