[Intro]
At dawn we stand
With opened hands
Let blood decide
What steel demands

[Verse]
Circle close around the stone
No man swears the vow alone
Cut the palm and stain the blade
This is how the debt is paid

Father’s grief and mother’s cry
Rise like smoke into the sky
Every scar becomes a thread
Tying living hands to dead

[Pre-Chorus]
Say the names
Raise the flame
Let the old wounds speak again
Say the names
Feed the claim
Let the oath become the chain

[Chorus]
Blood oath at dawn
Till the last breath is gone
By the axe, by the flame
By the dead without a name

Blood oath at dawn
Under red and dying sun
We are bound, we are torn
We are sworn before the storm

[Verse]
No priest blesses what we do
Only frost and iron true
No god answers from the height
Only ravens dressed in night

Still we kneel and still we pray
Still we choose the killing way
Still we call it sacred law
With the wolf inside the jaw

[Pre-Chorus]
Say the names
Raise the flame
Let the old wounds speak again
Say the names
Feed the claim
Let the oath become the chain

[Chorus]
Blood oath at dawn
Till the last breath is gone
By the axe, by the flame
By the dead without a name

Blood oath at dawn
Under red and dying sun
We are bound, we are torn
We are sworn before the storm

[Build-up]
One drop for the father
One drop for the son
One drop for the brother
Whose shadow cannot run

One drop for the liar
One drop for the throne
One drop for the fire
That burns in blood and bone

[Breakdown]
Sworn
Bound
Cut
Crowned
Blood
Stone
Debt
Bone

[Chorus]
Blood oath at dawn
Till the last breath is gone
By the axe, by the flame
By the dead without a name

Blood oath at dawn
Under red and dying sun
We are bound, we are torn
We are sworn before the storm

[Outro]
At dawn we stand
With opened hands
The snow drinks red
The oath commands
