Powerful clean female vocals, heavy melodic guitars, orchestral layers, and a heroic medieval atmosphere build toward a final stand beneath a shattered throne. 🎵 Music generated with Suno 🎬 Visuals and video edited by Ratshade If you enjoy dark fantasy metal, paladins, fallen kingdoms, heroic last stands, and cinematic fantasy music, consider subscribing for more Ratshade releases. Lyrics: [Intro] The banners burn above the gate Ash falls where the courtiers prayed I take the key, I bar the door And hear the kingdom shake its floor [Verse 1] The eastern tower has lost its flame The river carries broken names My armor bears the marks of three Still no one passes me The council fled before the dawn They left the seal, the blade, the throne I kneel once only, then arise With dying embers in my eyes [Pre-Chorus] Let the black tide climb the wall Let the war-horns call I was sworn beneath this crown I will not lay it down [Chorus] By oath and steel, I stand alone Guarding the fire, guarding the throne While kingdoms fall and heavens scar My heart will be the final bar By blood and honor, I remain A living shield against the flame If darkness comes to take it all It meets me standing at the wall [Verse 2] The marble hall is split with red The royal room is cold and dead I hear the enemy below Counting every breath I owe No banner left to mark my side No hand to hold, no place to hide But in the crown’s unbroken gleam I see the vow that made me queen [Pre-Chorus] Let the black tide climb the wall Let the war-horns call I was sworn beneath this crown I will not lay it down [Chorus] By oath and steel, I stand alone Guarding the fire, guarding the throne While kingdoms fall and heavens scar My heart will be the final bar By blood and honor, I remain A living shield against the flame If darkness comes to take it all It meets me standing at the wall [Bridge] If I must give my breath tonight Let it purchase morning light If I must fall beneath the blade Let the throne outlive the grave Tell the child who wears the crown One guardian held the darkness down Not for praise and not for song But because the vow was strong [Instrumental] [Final Chorus] By oath and steel, I stand alone Guarding the fire, guarding the throne Though every star is drowned in war My heart will be the final bar By blood and honor, I remain A living shield against the flame Let every shadow heed my call It meets me standing at the wall [Outro] The banners burn, the morning waits I keep the key beside the gates When silence claims the shattered stone The crown still rests upon the throne #DarkFantasyMetal #FantasyMetal #Ratshade
