[Instrumental Intro] (Tiefe Kriegstrommeln, entferntes Schlachtenhorn, Wind über einer Hochebene. Langsam kommen harte Kicks und ein dunkler Bass dazu.) [Female Spoken Word] (Kalt, getragen, als Stimme des Schicksals) Steel will sing. Blood will answer. The ravens are already watching. [Melodic Verse: Male Singing] (Ohhh, before the charge...) The morning breaks in iron grey No gentle dawn to light the way The shield-wall waits on battered ground Hearts in sync with war-drum sound I taste the metal in the air A silent oath, a whispered prayer [Verse 2 – Female Lead Vocal] (Singing, kalt-schön, wie eine Walküre oder Seherin) They march for honor, march for land For broken crowns and bleeding hands Yet in the sky the ravens glide Indifferent to our mortal pride They see the threads of every life Across the chaos, blood and strife [Pre-Chorus – Duet Vocals] (Drums dichter, Hörner lauter, Synths bauen Druck auf) (Male) My pulse is racing with the beat! (Female) The clash of steel, the clash of heat! (Male) If I should fall upon this field! (Female) Will you accept what fate revealed? [Chorus – Duet Vocals] (Explosiver, schneller Drop, treibend und episch) Ravens over the Battlefield tonight! Circling above our failing might! They count the fallen, one by one Beneath the pale and dying sun! In every scream, in every cry They carve our names into the sky! [Instrumental Break] (Driving Bass, harte Kicks, Kriegstrommeln, nordische Hörner, aggressive, aber melodische Lead-Synth-Line. Sehr clubtauglich, aber filmisch.) [Melodic Verse: Male Singing] (Ahhh, in the storm...) The clash of blades, the thunder’s roar My legs grow heavy, cold and sore I see a brother start to fall His blood a stain upon the wall I raise my voice above the din To drown the battle raging in [Pre-Chorus – Duet Vocals] (Male) My pulse is racing with the beat! (Female) The clash of steel, the clash of heat! (Male) If I should fall upon this field! (Female) Will you accept what fate revealed? [Chorus – Duet Vocals] (Maximaler Druck, Intensität, mehr Chor im Hintergrund) Ravens over the Battlefield tonight! Circling above our failing might! They count the fallen, one by one Beneath the pale and dying sun! In every scream, in every cry They carve our names into the sky! [Breakdown] (Beat fällt weg. Nur dumpfe, langsamere Drums, entferntes Horn, Rabenrufe. Ein tiefer, langsamer Drone.) [Female Spoken Word] (Leise, aber klar, wie eine innere Stimme) Whether you stand or whether you fall… The song of your heart is never lost. [Build-up] (Schnellere Trommel-Rolls, Bass schwillt an, Synth-Riser wie ein heranrollender Sturm.) [Final Chorus – Duet Vocals] (Etwas offener, hymnischer, mit mehr Hall; der Kampf kulminiert) Ravens over the Battlefield tonight! Circling above our fading light! They count the fallen, one by one Beneath the pale and dying sun! In every scream, in every cry They carve our names into the sky! [Outro – Instrumental] (Drums sterben langsam, nur noch Wind, ein letzter Hornruf, dann entferntes Flügelschlagen der Raben. Tiefer Pad-Akkord, dann Stille.) [End]
