Crown of Ash and Velvet
Beneath the velvet midnight,
Where candle shadows fall,
A heart that feared no kingdom
Would answer to a call.
I was forged in ancient thunder,
Crowned in iron, raised in flame,
Every throne became my hunger,
Every soul forgot my name.
Then you stood beside the silence,
Black lace, silver in your hair,
With a gaze that met the darkness
Like you never learned to fear.
I have danced with whispered danger,
I have worn the moon as gold,
But beneath your crown of shadows There's a story left untold.
We
are the crown of ash and velvet,
Fire entwined with midnight rain,
You are the wildness in my silence,
I am the pulse beneath your reign.
Let the heavens break above us,
Let the old world turn to stone,
In this kingdom built of shadows,
We will never stand alone.
I was born beneath the pale moon,
With the night stitched to my skin,
Silver chains and whispered secrets,
A thousand wars held deep within.
You could rule the stars to silence,
Make the oceans kneel below,
But you cannot command a heartbeat—
That is something I bestow.
All my battles left me hollow,
All my victories turned cold,
Till your hand became the ember
In a heart of iron stone.
We
are the crown of ash and velvet,
Fire entwined with midnight rain,
You are the wildness in my silence,
I am the pulse beneath your reign.
Let the heavens break above us,
Let the old world turn to stone,
In this kingdom built of shadows,
We will never stand alone.
Drakthar, lay your thunder down,
I see the soul beneath the crown.
Selene, you have crossed the flame,
And made a home inside my name.
No prophecy can bind us,
No holy blade divide us,
If darkness comes to claim us,
We'll teach the dark to fear us!
We are the crown of ash and velvet,
Two immortal hearts untamed,
You are the spark within my ruin,
I am the storm that guards your flame.
Let the heavens break above us,
Let eternity be known,
In this kingdom built of shadows,
We have made the night our home!
Beneath the velvet midnight…
I am yours,
and yours alone.
