Rise, Shadowed Heart

Verse

Crimson falls upon the earth,

A silence broken, stolen mirth.

Your pain, your cry, I hear it clear,

No darkness dares to linger near.

Pre-chorus

I run through night, through storm, through flame,

I’ll find your soul, I’ll call your name.

Chorus

Rise, shadowed heart, don’t fade away,

I’ll hold your light, I’ll make you stay.

No hand, no blade, no whispered curse,

Can break the bond, cannot make it worse.

Rise, shadowed heart, through fear and strife,

I’ll guard your life, I swear this life.

Verse

The oak stands witness to the fall,

Yet I will answer to your call.

No smoke, no shadow, no hidden foe,

Can dim the fire you’re meant to show.

Pre-chorus

I’ll climb, I’ll leap, I’ll cross the night,

To bring you back into the light.

Chorus

Rise, shadowed heart, don’t fade away,

I’ll hold your light, I’ll make you stay.

No hand, no blade, no whispered curse,

Can break the bond, cannot make it worse.

Rise, shadowed heart, through fear and strife,

I’ll guard your life, I swear this life.

Bridge

Breathe! Don’t leave me here alone!

The world will not take you from me!

Hold on, hold on, I’ll make you see,

Your heart beats still—it beats with me!

Chorus

Rise, shadowed heart, don’t fade away,

I’ll hold your light, I’ll make you stay.

No hand, no blade, no whispered curse,

Can break the bond, cannot make it worse.

Rise, shadowed heart, through fear and strife,

I’ll guard your life, I swear this life.

Outro

Awake, awake, the night is done…

You are not lost, you are my sun.
