[Verse 1]
Down
It was his neck or her wrist
Clean nails on iron fist
Dreams of peace beyond the wall
She'd cry out for mercy but she had no voice at all

[Verse 2]
Here
Here and now it ends
This quiet victory, her promise she would make amends
He lay not yet cold on the ground
This day of all days she would wear her dark hair down

[Chorus]
This time the wheel has come around
Free of her cage she crows with a fearless sound
"Your fists can't hurt me now"
A fearless sound
She'll wear her dark hair down
Down

[Verse 3]
Down
And blood brought the answer that time could not provide
Scars that read like home could hide
Her prison swallowed everything but piercing open eyes
She, she proudly bore the mark where his brand had met her head
She, she spat, "The coward could not kill what was already dead"

[Chorus]
Dark hair down
This time the wheel has come around
Free of her cage, a fearless sound
Stand and fight
This is my salvation
Blood for blood, my love
With a fearless sound
"Your fists can't hurt me now"
A fearless sound
She'll wear her dark hair down
Down

[Guitar Solo]

[Outro]
Blood for blood, my love
