Low. Distant. Wrong. Like a grave remembering our names. [Verse 1] Morning came without a sunrise Grey light choking through the trees Even the horses pulled against us Like they smelled something underneath The map had changed beside the fire A road appeared where none should be Blackroot Hollow carved in ink Like the night itself was guiding me Some prayed softly while we traveled Some sharpened steel to calm their nerves Me? I kept one hand upon my Hexblade Feeling something in the dark return [Pre-Chorus] Every bell has hands that pull it Every curse has roots below And every oath I ever buried Starts whispering when cold winds blow [Chorus] Hear the bell beneath Blackroot Hollow Ringing where no dawn will rise Something sleeps beneath the chapel Breathing through the well at night So stay behind me when it calls us Keep your lanterns burning low If the dead begin remembering Iβll be the first one through the smoke [Verse 2] Children watched us through the windows Faces pale as funeral snow No dogs barking in the village No warm light inside the homes The wells kept whispering after sunset Voices drowning under stone And every villager we questioned Spoke like someone else owned their soul Then the bell rang once at twilight And the forest held its breath I saw shadows move beneath the chapel Like claws scratching under death The priest just stared into the candle Hands shaking around his chain When I asked what slept below the floorboards He only whispered: βDonβt let it learn your name.β [Bridge] So I drew the blade Zariel gave me Black fire crawling through the rain And every broken oath inside me Rose like wolves against their chains If darkness waits beneath this village Then let it choke upon my scars Because I have walked through Hell already And still came back armed. [Final Chorus] Hear the bell beneath Blackroot Hollow Calling through the poisoned dawn The chapel hides a buried hunger Old as rot and carved in stone But Iβll walk first into the blackness Where the dead and devils crawl Because somebody has to stand there When the light refuses all [Outro] The road behind us disappeared Fog swallowed every track we made And somewhere underneath the chapelβ¦ Something finally heard us. ππβοΈ
