[Intro]
Dig beneath the frozen grave
Ask the bones what silence gave
Every lie that kings defend
Finds its knife inside the end

[Verse]
The bride’s last curse disturbed the stones
And opened chambers under snow
Where buried tablets, sealed in wax
Revealed what none were meant to know
The feast-night poison, long proclaimed
The other clan’s eternal shame
Was poured by hands within the hall
By men who feared one crown for all

[Pre-Chorus]
Read the rune
Break the seal
Let the buried wound reveal

[Chorus]
The Betrayer’s Bloodline runs in us all
No single house, no single hall
The Betrayer’s Bloodline stains every name
We fed our children borrowed blame
We raised the sword, we praised the sign
But guilt runs deep through every line
The truth beneath the ancient pine
We are the betrayer’s bloodline

[Verse]
A bastard child was smuggled north
Half of one clan, half of the other
His name was struck from every song
His mother branded oathless lover
But from that child, the branches grew
In both the red and both the blue
Our enemies wore our father’s eyes
Our hatred lived because of lies

[Pre-Chorus]
Read the bone
Break the pride
No clean blood
Remains inside

[Chorus]
The Betrayer’s Bloodline runs in us all
No single house, no single hall
The Betrayer’s Bloodline stains every name
We fed our children borrowed blame
We raised the sword, we praised the sign
But guilt runs deep through every line
The truth beneath the ancient pine
We are the betrayer’s bloodline

[Instrumental]
Riffs coil like serpents under stone
Choirs chant in hollow tone
Fiddles twist the ancient theme
Like truth returning through a dream

[Bridge]
What is revenge when names are dust
What is honor built on rust
What is a feud when bloodlines cross
A kingdom trading sons for loss

[Breakdown]
Lie by lie
Grave by grave
Pride made master
Truth made slave
Blood knows blood
Bone knows bone
No clan pure
No guilt alone

[Build-up]
The warriors stood with lowered blades
Before the truth their elders made
But truth arrives too late for some
When drums of war have learned to run

[Chorus]
The Betrayer’s Bloodline runs in us all
No single house, no single hall
The Betrayer’s Bloodline stains every name
We fed our children borrowed blame
We raised the sword, we praised the sign
But guilt runs deep through every line
The truth beneath the ancient pine
We are the betrayer’s bloodline

[Chorus]
The Betrayer’s Bloodline breaks every throne
No heart can claim its grief alone
The Betrayer’s Bloodline cries from the slain
End this hunger, end this chain
We raised the sword, we praised the sign
But guilt runs deep through every line
The truth beneath the ancient pine
We are the betrayer’s bloodline

[Outro]
Dig beneath the frozen grave
Truth is cruel, but truth may save
