BOYS UNDER THE NORTH MOON [Verse 1] Faelan laughed where the lanterns died, Starmutt grin and a storm inside, Julian ran with his collar undone, Golden boy chasing trouble for fun. Emrys watched from the window stone, Moonlight knew what he never owned, Milo followed with a match in his hand, Scared of the dark, but afraid to stand. [Pre-Chorus] Down by the stair where the old walls breathe, Four little ghosts with mud on their sleeves, If the doors remember every name, Let them remember we came. [Chorus] We were boys under the north moon, Running where the shadows knew, Laughing loud enough to wake the stone, Swearing we would never walk alone. Boys under the north moon, Fire in our shoes too soon, If the castle kept the things we said, It knows which one of us looked back instead. [Verse 2] Faelan barked at the midnight bell, Julian dared him to raise more hell, Emrys smiled like a secret kept, Milo counted the promises left. Maps were stolen, windows climbed, Every rule had a better rhyme, Under cloaks and candle smoke, We made kings of every joke. [Pre-Chorus] Down by the crypt where the cold roots grow, Four bright names in the dust below, If the night was hungry, let it see, We were young enough to believe. [Chorus] We were boys under the north moon, Running where the shadows knew, Laughing loud enough to wake the stone, Swearing we would never walk alone. Boys under the north moon, Fire in our shoes too soon, If the castle kept the things we said, It knows which one of us looked back instead. [Bridge] One was thunder, One was flame, One was silence, One wanted a name. One would fight, One would shine, One would carry the wolf in his spine, One would smile at the edge of the light, And vanish before the end of the night. [Final Chorus] We were boys under the north moon, Running where the shadows knew, Laughing loud enough to wake the dead, Too young to fear the road ahead. Boys under the north moon, Gone from the halls too soon, If the castle kept the things we said, It knows which one of us looked back instead. [Outro] Faelan laughed, Julian burned, Emrys knew, Milo turned. Under the north moon, Under the north moon.
