[Intro – Anvil Hits / Steam Whistle] Strike the bell— Hear it ring through smoke and snow. [Verse 1] Brass skies cracking over frozen stone Clock towers bleed a molten tone Gears grind loud where choirs pray Faith runs hot in the blast radius Chains snap tight, boots hit steel Every scar reminds us what’s real Candles shake in cannon wind But the night won’t scare us in [Pre-Chorus – Rising Organ & Chants] Hold the spark, don’t bow, don’t kneel Joy is forged, not given, feel it— Count it out, lock the sound This is where the brave are found [Chorus – Full Gang & Choir] Ring the bells of the iron night Let ’em clash with fire and light If the world burns red and cold We’ll sing louder—harder—bold Ring the bells of the iron night Through the smoke, we stand upright No surrender, no retreat Hope has teeth—and marches beat [Verse 2] Snow falls thick on shattered glass Every laugh cuts through the blast Wreaths of wire, crowns of rust Still we rise because we must Hear the organ shake the streets War drums pound at 128 If the sky comes crashing down We’ll hold Christmas in this town [Pre-Chorus – Half Shouted] Hands up high, hearts locked tight Steel-born joy won’t lose the fight Wind it up, ignite the cheer This is ours—this time of year [Chorus – Louder, Faster] Ring the bells of the iron night Let ’em drown the sirens’ cry From the forge to the front line We keep time—divine, defiant Ring the bells of the iron night Ash and snow both burning bright If they try to break the beat We rebuild it—hit repeat [Bridge – Half-Time / Organ & Choir] Not holy—hardened Not safe—standing Peace isn’t quiet It’s demanded [Build – Bells Accelerate] Strike it once! Strike it twice! Let the cheer turn into spite! [Final Chorus – Maximum Power] Ring the bells of the iron night Let the engines sing it right Through the war, through fear, through flame Joy survives—remember the name Ring the bells of the iron night We don’t fade—we fortify When the cannons choke the air Christmas roars—we’re still here [Outro – Music Box Crushed by Gears] Bell still ringing… Even now.
