The Dark Lord

[Verse 1] In the heart of a kingdom cloaked in night, A castle stands, a fearsome sight. Stone walls rise 'neath the moon's cold glare, Inside, a throne, and a dark lord there. [Chorus] Oh, he rules with an iron fist, In his realm of fog and mist. Eyes like embers, burning bright, He is the shadow, he is the night. [Verse 2] The wind whispers secrets, old and dire, Of the lord who walks where the stars conspire. His voice, a thunder, his will, the law, In halls where even brave hearts withdraw. [Chorus] Oh, he rules with an iron fist, In his realm of fog and mist. Eyes like embers, burning bright, He is the shadow, he is the night. [Bridge:] No mercy found in his cold embrace, Power etched upon his face. Yet, deep within those castle walls, A silent heart in darkness calls. [Chorus] Oh, he rules with an iron fist, In his realm of fog and mist. Eyes like embers, burning bright, He is the shadow, he is the night. [Verse 3] He commands the storm, he commands the dread, But alone he lies in his regal bed. A crown of iron, a soul of stone, In his dark empire, forever alone. [Chorus] Oh, he rules with an iron fist, In his realm of fog and mist. Eyes like embers, burning bright, He is the shadow, he is the night. [Outro] So beware the dark lord's timeless ire, The master of the midnight empire. For in his shadow, all lights dim, Where the night ends, his reign begins.
