[Intro] "Red reign..." "Let it fall..." "Tonight... it begins..." [Verse 1] City lights flicker under crimson skies, (ooh, crimson skies) Whispers crawl through the alleys where the silence dies. (shhh...) Footsteps echo, every shadow knows my name, (knows my name) I am hunger, I am fire, I am the flame. (I am the flame, yeah!) [Pre-Chorus] No more hiding in the cracks of fear, Tonight the throne is drawing near. (It's drawing near...) Chains are broken, blood awakes, I own the night with every breath I take. ("breath I take!") [Chorus] Let the red reign, let the blood rain down! (rain down!) Crown of bones, I claim this town! (I claim this town!) From the ash, from the grave, I rise untamed, (rise untamed) Bow to the night — (to the night!) Let the red reign! (let it fall, let it fall...) [Post-Chorus] (Ohhh, red reign...) (Ohhh, let it rain...) [Verse 2] Cold breath fogs on a shattered pane, (shattered pane) Every heartbeat's just a drum in my dark campaign. (dark campaign, ha!) City’s trembling at the touch of my hand, One command, and they’ll understand. (yeah, they’ll understand...) [Pre-Chorus] No more chains to hold me tight, (no more chains...) I was born for endless night. (born for endless night...) Ashes swirl where the mortals fall, The night is mine, I take it all! (Echo: "take it all!") [Chorus] Let the red reign, let the blood rain down! (rain down!) Crown of bones, I claim this town! (claim this town!) From the ash, from the grave, I rise untamed, (rise untamed) Bow to the night — (bow to the night!) Let the red reign! (let it reign, let it reign...) [Bridge] Under the moon (under the moon), half black, half red... (half red...) I wear no disguise (no disguise), my hunger’s fed... (hunger's fed...) One by one (one by one), your kings will fall, (they will fall...) I am the night... (I am the night...) I am the call! (I am the call, yeah!) [Breakdown] Red reign! (Red reign!) Red reign! (Red reign!) It’s in my veins! (in my veins!) Let it fall! (fall!) [Final Chorus] Let the red reign, let the blood rain down! (blood rain down!) Crown of bones, I claim this town! (I claim this town!) From the ash, from the grave, I rise untamed, (rise untamed) Bow to the night — (bow down!) Let the red reign! (let it reign!) [Outro] You will remember... (remember...) You will obey... (obey...) The red reign starts today... (today...)
