The Chosen One v2

[Intro] Beneath the painted moon, the iron gates swing wide A crown of thorn and frost rides in from the tide [Verse 1] He came when every bell forgot its name Black banners drinking color from the flame His riders marked one doorway with a sign A silver thread around your wrist: “You’re mine.” [Pre-Chorus] The old law carved beneath the chapel floor: One chosen heart—or dawn returns no more [Chorus] Stand, chosen one, with the morning at your back The Night King’s hand is reaching through the black Strike down his crown before the day is gone Or night will rule the world from now on [Verse 2] He offered you a throne of frozen glass And swore the dead would rise to watch you pass You heard your mother’s hymn inside the storm And felt the buried sun begin to warm [Pre-Chorus] The last gold hour was bleeding from the sky You raised the broken blade and met his eye [Chorus] Stand, chosen one, with the morning at your back The Night King’s hand is reaching through the black Strike down his crown before the day is gone Or night will rule the world from now on [Bridge] Steel meets ice—the chapel splits in two He names the dark; the dark answers you “Your reign ends here. Your claim ends here.” The crown falls hard; the dawn draws near [Final Chorus] Stand, chosen one, let the morning flood the black The Night King falls; the sun is turning back His crown lies cracked, his endless rule undone The bells ring clear—the night has lost the sun [Outro] The gates swing shut. The first birds call. One chosen heart stood fast—and saved us all.
