Bound by Fire, Claimed by Storm

Verse 1 I was born where the sea keeps its secrets Where the tide learns your name I don’t trust what the light tries to promise Every calm hides a blade I’ve made peace with the wreckage behind me With the blood on my hands Then your eyes cut through smoke and horizon Like a flame I don’t understand Pre-Chorus You don’t kneel You don’t beg You don’t look away And the storm in my chest Starts to answer your flame Chorus I was sworn to the deep, to the dark, to the tide To the silence that gods never hear But I’d burn every oath, let the whole world collide If it keeps you right here I don’t pray I don’t plead I don’t run anymore I am bound by your fire I am claimed by the storm Verse 2 You were forged in a blaze they couldn’t cage Every spark earned in pain You don’t fear what the sea tries to take from you You just dare it again I’ve watched kingdoms sink under false mercy Watched love turn to war But the way that you stand in the ashes Makes me want something more Pre-Chorus Say the word I’ll defy Every law ever sworn Let the heavens come crashing— I was lost till you burned Chorus I was sworn to the deep, to the dark, to the tide To the knife-edge of living alone But I’ll tear down the sky, let the waters ignite If it means you’re my home I don’t pray I don’t plead I don’t run anymore I am bound by your fire I am claimed by the storm Bridge (drop everything—low strings, breath, thunder rolling) If the sea rises up to condemn us Let it come If the gods turn their faces against us I won’t run I was made for the fight I was born for the fall But loving you— That’s the war that costs it all Final Chorus (full power) I was sworn to the deep, to the dark, to the tide To a fate carved in salt and regret But I’ll stand in the flames, let the storm decide If this world survives what we set I don’t pray I don’t plead I don’t run anymore I am bound by your fire I am claimed by the storm Outro (quiet, wrecked) Let the tide remember our names Let the sea bear the scar I was lost to the dark Till you burned— And I was yours
