Livelock - The Unbending Lyrics

In the darkness of the fallen lands
With the strength of steel and a sword in hand
Years he's trained, for this moment he's born
To reclaim the throne from the undead horde
His muscles wrought in the forge of war
Each scar a tale of the battles before
On the edges where the shadows lie
He swears an oath with a vengeful cry
Armored in faith, in prophecy's lore
With every heartbeat, he's sworn to restore
His eyes aflame with a warrior's light
Destined to fight through the darkest of nights

The stars are witness to his solemn vow
The driven heart in a relentless plough
Monsters tremble at his battle roar
Drums of war, they pound, they pound the floor
Through haunted vales, he marches, steel-clad feet
Each step, a symphony, the undead's defeat

Now behold (now behold)
The chosen rise, ledger the day
As he steps (steps into the fray)
The earth it trembles, undead decay
Blood and thunder, light and sound
Where he walks, freedom's ground
He's the storm (the storm of fate)

Now ascend (now ascend)
The hero's crest, with might unending
Steel meets bone, his will unbending
Fate's own son, the tides he's turning
Rise and cheer
The champion's here, his blade afire

For the kingdom's heart, he'll cleave the dark
His blade a beacon, his valor stark
Again he roars (roars against the tide)
With every swing, the undead hide
In the storm's eye, hope alights
Where he stands, he reclaims the night
