Midnight Sisters of Blood and Thorn

+ Show full styles

{Verse 1 – Thorn Queen} I walked where the cathedral shadows Fell across the winter stone, Lantern light and ivy fingers Guiding strangers safely home. They called my name in whispered prayers, The widow clothed in emerald flame, I carry all the lost they've buried, And I remember every name. The roses bloom where blood has fallen, Ravens circle overhead, I drink from willing hands that trust me, Keeping watch among the dead. {Pre-Chorus} The moon still knows us, The bells still toll, The city carved itself Into our immortal souls. {Chorus} We are the midnight sisters, Blood and thorn beneath the sky, Fangs behind our gentle promises, Guardians that never die. One holds the lantern through the darkness, One draws steel against the storm, Feared by those who do not know us, Loved by those we've carried home. We are the midnight sisters, Cursed and crowned beneath the moon, Monsters only to the monsters, And the night still sings our tune. {Verse 2 – Crimson Mechanist} I traded innocence for iron, Clockwork beating where hearts once were, Silver chambers, brass convictions, Every scar became a spur. I hunt the things that hunt the helpless, Through the alleys soaked in rain, Every trigger pulled with purpose, Every burden mine to claim. I have seen empires rot to nothing, Watched the righteous lose their way, Still I sharpen wrath to mercy, Still I rise before the day. {Pre-Chorus} The gears still turn, The old blood flows, We became the thing we feared, So no one stands alone. {Chorus} We are the midnight sisters, Blood and thorn beneath the sky, Fangs behind our gentle promises, Guardians that never die. One holds the lantern through the darkness, One draws steel against the storm, Feared by those who do not know us, Loved by those we've carried home. We are the midnight sisters, Cursed and crowned beneath the moon, Monsters only to the monsters, And the night still sings our tune. {Bridge} Tell me, sister... Do you remember winter? I remember snow stained crimson. Do you remember mother's voice? I remember hands that would not let us go. Do you regret eternity? Only the graves I could not save. Would you choose this life again? ...If it meant they lived? Every time. {Final Chorus} We are the midnight sisters, Ancient daughters of the night, Holding fast to fragile kindness, Teaching darkness there is light. One bears ivy, flame, and memory, One bears brass, resolve, and pain, Side by side through endless ages, Walking midnight's crimson rain. We are the midnight sisters, Blood and thorn beneath the moon, Not the evil found in story, But the hope that came too soon. Monsters only to the monsters, Guardians until the end, And when the final bell is silenced, Sister... I will find you there again. {Outro} Lantern ember... Clockwork sigh... Raven feathers... Cathedral chimes... Blood remembers... Thorns forgive... As long as one of us remains... The city lives.
