[Intro]
Red fire over frozen stone
The night has carved its name in bone
The ravens cry, the torches burn
The dead beneath the hills return

[Verse]
Across the fjord, the horns awake
The sleeping wolves begin to shake
Old swords remember every scar
Old fathers whisper who we are
The snow turns black beneath our feet
The iron drums begin to beat
No prayer can chain what blood has known
No crown can calm the ancient throne

[Pre-Chorus]
Raise the ash, raise the flame
Call the lost ones by their name
From the graves and from the sea
Wake the war inside of me

[Chorus]
Blood Moon Rising over the North
Open the wounds and call us forth
Red as vengeance, cold as stone
No clan shall face the night alone
Blood Moon Rising, burning wide
Paint the gods in crimson tide
We are the sons of oath and blade
Born where broken vows were made

[Verse]
The elders speak with hollow eyes
Of feast-night fire and murdered ties
Two banners split beneath the storm
Two brothered clans to hatred sworn
A stolen bride, a poisoned horn
A kingless child in winter born
And every hearth that learned to mourn
Now feeds the rage of this red dawn

[Pre-Chorus]
Beat the shields, break the sleep
Let the old wolves rise and reap
If the gods demand our breath
We shall sing the road to death

[Chorus]
Blood Moon Rising over the North
Open the wounds and call us forth
Red as vengeance, cold as stone
No clan shall face the night alone
Blood Moon Rising, burning wide
Paint the gods in crimson tide
We are the sons of oath and blade
Born where broken vows were made

[Instrumental]
Fiddles scream through the mountain air
Drums like thunder, torches flare
Steel answers steel in the red moonlight
The saga wakes in the teeth of night

[Bridge]
Was it Odin who stained the sky
Or something older waiting high
Was it glory, was it doom
That opened wide the blood-red moon

[Breakdown]
Kneel to the oath
Kneel to the flame
Kneel to the dead
Who remember our name
Blood for the fathers
Blood for the land
Blood on the axe
And the trembling hand

[Build-up]
The fjords are watching
The stones are awake
The ice is cracking
The old laws break

[Chorus]
Blood Moon Rising over the North
Open the wounds and call us forth
Red as vengeance, cold as stone
No clan shall face the night alone
Blood Moon Rising, burning wide
Paint the gods in crimson tide
We are the sons of oath and blade
Born where broken vows were made

[Chorus]
Blood Moon Rising over the North
Wake every ghost and sharpen the sword
Red as warning, red as war
Red as the gates we’re marching for
Blood Moon Rising, hear our cry
We raise our blades against the sky
And if this night demands our name
We walk as iron into flame

[Outro]
Red fire over frozen stone
The blood moon claims us for its own
