The Flame of Tar Valon

[Verse 1] Blue silk on the river road Dust on the hem of a noble’s pride Coins Secrets Rumors in her palm Stone-cold gaze on a world half-lying She walks like a distant storm Quiet voice Yet the room leans in Tea steam curls around the truth She already knows how this will end [Chorus] Moiraine Damodred Fire in a velvet hand Carrying a breaking world Like it’s part of her plan She moves the pattern’s thread Where others only see a strand Moiraine Damodred Too hard to love Too soft to stand [Verse 2] Lan’s shadow at her shoulder Steel and silence Oath and scar She says “We go ” and mountains bow Little village boys become the stars She gambles kingdoms on a whisper Lets them curse Lets them misunderstand Takes the blame The weight The wound Never once unclenches her hand [Chorus] [Bridge] [low vocal register] In a hidden heart She’s tired Of blood on bargains Names on stones Of children marching into prophecy While she walks home alone But the flame keeps burning steady In the circle of her palm She trades her future Burns it bright So the world can wake to dawn [Chorus]
