[Intro]
(deep rumble, distant chanting)
Bound… and waiting…
Breath… is fading…

[Verse]
They lay you down on sacred stone
Stripped of name, of kin, of home
Cold iron rings around your hands
No voice remains to make demands

The circle watches, silent, wide
No place to run, no place to hide
Eyes like embers, fixed on you
As ancient shadows gather through

[Pre-Chorus – Whispered Build]
Feel the weight upon your chest
An unseen hand denies you rest

[Chorus – Slow, Crushing]
Blood eagle rising… in the night…
Bones like branches… forced to light…
Breath is breaking… spirit torn…
In this place… you are reborn…

[Verse]
Leather pulled and tightened slow
Till breath becomes a dying glow
The spine beneath the frozen air
Feels the touch of something there

A crack like thunder, low and deep
Echoes where the old gods sleep
Your body bends to will unknown
No longer yours… no longer whole

[Bridge – Ritual Chant, Dissonant]
(layered voices, uneven rhythm)
Wingless… wingless… now take flight…
Through the veil… into the night…

Bound to earth… yet called above…
Marked in pain… by death… not love…

[Verse]
The sky splits open, black and wide
Something stirs on the other side
Not a god of golden hall—
But something that devours all

You feel yourself begin to fade
As if your soul itself’s unmade
The watchers chant, the fire bends
This is not where death… just ends

[Chorus – Heavier, Layered]
Blood eagle rising… hear the sound…
Of breaking silence all around…
No mercy given, none to save…
Only darkness… only grave…

Wings of terror, carved in night…
Carry you beyond the light…
In the end, your fate is sealed…
To the void you are revealed…

You are revealed…

[Breakdown – Slow, Crushing, Minimal]
(almost silent drums, deep voice)
Bound…
Broken…
Offered…

[Outro – Whisper, Wind]
(fading heartbeat)
No hall awaits…
No song is sung…

Only the wind…
And what you’ve become…

And what you’ve BECOME…
And what you’ve become…
