[Verse 1] You walked in like a winter flame Snow on your coat, but you said my name I felt the hall go thin and cold Like every vow I ever told Your eyes were a locked-up door I leaned in closer, wanted more A pulse of thunder under my skin And the night let your shadow in [Pre-Chorus] Now the candles lean When you look at me I can’t turn away I can’t turn away [Chorus] Black rose oath, I fall to you Black rose oath, through and through If this is the blade, let it be true Black rose oath, I fall to you [Verse 2] You laughed and the glassware shook Like church bells drowning in a brook I swear the dark got soft around Your fingertips on battle ground I was a fortress made of frost Counting every war I lost Then you pressed your hand to mine And the bones in my brave resigned [Pre-Chorus] Now the candles lean When you look at me I can’t turn away I can’t turn away [Chorus] Black rose oath, I fall to you Black rose oath, through and through If this is the blade, let it be true Black rose oath, I fall to you [Bridge] Name me the ruin, name me the star I’ll follow your shadow wherever you are Heaven can wait at the iron gate I learned your love at the edge of fate [Final Chorus] Black rose oath, I fall to you Black rose oath, through and through If this is the blade, let it be true Black rose oath, I fall to you Black rose oath, pull me in Black rose oath, let me begin I was alone, now I am new Black rose oath, I fall to you
