Blue Eye Blade

[Verse 1] She drops through stone Blond braid tight Blue eyes locked On a dead-black hall Wet claws on walls A hiss in the cracks The torchlight bends Like it's scared to stay One creature crawls Thin as a knife Mouth full of teeth And a split tongue lash It spits black foam At her boots and shield She turns the swing And cuts it clean in half [Pre-Chorus] The air grows cold A warning skin-deep Something huge moves Behind the bones She plants her feet Reads the dark Then lifts her blade And dares it to come [Chorus] Blue eyes, steel blade Come and try me Blue eyes, steel blade I don't break easy Blue eyes, steel blade I cut through fear Blue eyes, steel blade I leave you here [Verse 2] Two more skitter out From a broken arch Long wet limbs And ember eyes They leap in chains With hook-bone claws She ducks the first Then cracks the jaw One bites her guard One swings high She rolls through dust And takes the knee Then from the dark A horned brute rises Carries a slab Like a graveyard door It slams the ground Splits the floor wide She jumps the seam And drives in hard [Pre-Chorus] The air grows cold A warning skin-deep Something huge moves Behind the bones She sees the pulse In the monster's chest One clean strike And the whole room ends [Chorus] Blue eyes, steel blade Come and try me Blue eyes, steel blade I don't break easy Blue eyes, steel blade I cut through fear Blue eyes, steel blade I leave you here [Bridge] Then the last one breathes From a throne of rot All ribs and smoke And a crown of thorns It throws black spikes At her face in waves She twists aside With a bloodless grin One step in One swing down The crown falls off The shadows shake She stands alone In the echoing hush With monster ash On her boots and hands [Final Chorus] Blue eyes, steel blade Come and try me Blue eyes, steel blade I don't break easy Blue eyes, steel blade I cut through fear Blue eyes, steel blade I leave you here Blue eyes, steel blade The dark can kneel Blue eyes, steel blade I'm still here
