The Unyielding Light

[Intro]
[Verse]
Obsidian waves reach for the sky
I watch the summer seagulls die
Salt-lashed stone holds back the tide
Nowhere for the weak to hide
My lantern glows with ancient heat
Laying the darkness at my feet
[Pre-Chorus]
The clouds ignite with purple fire
The ocean sings a funeral choir
Ghostly ships begin to drift
Through the widening temporal rift
[Chorus]
Shine on, O beacon of the north
Send the golden arrows forth
The kingdom sleeps behind my back
Safe from the monster in the black
I am the oath, I am the light
The sovereign master of the night
[Verse]
Whispers rise from rotting wood
I stand where my fathers stood
The lightning cracks the heavy air
I offer up a warrior's prayer
The gears are turning, brass and bone
I face the cataclysm alone
[Pre-Chorus]
The clouds ignite with purple fire
The ocean sings a funeral choir
Ghostly ships begin to drift
Through the widening temporal rift
[Chorus]
Shine on, O beacon of the north
Send the golden arrows forth
The kingdom sleeps behind my back
Safe from the monster in the black
I am the oath, I am the light
The sovereign master of the night
[Bridge]
Let the thunder strike the tower
This is my finest hour
Though the foundations start to shake
The iron spirit will not break
By the oil and by the wick
The pulse of life is beating quick
[Solo]
[Chorus]
Shine on, O beacon of the north
Send the golden arrows forth
The kingdom sleeps behind my back
Safe from the monster in the black
I am the oath, I am the light
The sovereign master of the night
[Post-Chorus]
The light will shine
The stars align
The storm will fail
We shall prevail
[Outro]
