The iron in her heart - Mythborne

In the dawn, they came with fire, the banners red with sin

She took her blade of silver steel and led her soldiers in

But the cries of war grew hollow, and her courage turned to stone

When the traitors bound her hands that day and left her all alone

Raise your cups and sing her name

Though her mind was torn apart

Through the storm and through the sorrow

Burned the iron in her heart

Let no chain nor cruel whisper keep her spirit cast away

For the woman who was broken, rose again

To fight the fray

In the dark, they whispered lies, they carved them in her soul

Turned her dreams to twisted smoke, unmade her self-control

But in the ashes of her mind, a single spark remained

A memory of morning light that would not be contained

Raise your cups and sing her name

Though her mind was torn apart

Through the storm and through the sorrow

Burned the iron in her heart

Let no chain nor cruel whisper keep her spirit cast away

For the woman who was broken, rose again

To fight the fray

The moon looked down and wept for her, the river hid its flow

Yet, she found peace in silence where no tormentor'd go

And when the dawn came creeping through the ruins and the rain

She rose with eyes of tempered steel and took her sword again

Raise your cups and sing her name

Though her mind was torn apart

Through the storm and through the sorrow

Burned the iron in her heart

Let no chain nor cruel whisper keep her spirit cast away

For the woman who was broken, rose again

To fight the fray

Raise your cups and sing her name

Let the rafters bear her part

Through the storm and through the sorrow

Burned the iron in her heart

Now her banner flies unbroken, on the field where tyrants fall

For the woman who was shattered stands the fiercest of them all
