Dawn of Treason
Dawn of Treason orchestral metal, heavy guitars, sweeping strings, dramatic male and female duet vocals, melodic but aggressive, dark and cinematic, tempo shifts, epic guitar solo, thunderous drums, G Minor, 140 bpm Lyrics (Verse 1) The dawn chill tears the fog to shreds, The haughty city awaits a bloody tribute! The King did not sleep, tormented in the middle of the night, By the fire of treason, the pain of eternal torment. They lead her! The queen of lies and passion, To the crowd's judgment, to the wooden scaffold. Her executioner—a remnant of past power, A merciless outpost of her fate! (Pre-Chorus) He raises the steel, hiding the trembling in his hands, Hatred and torment in his eyes! She reads her final sentence in his pupils, Love and death—a cruel science! (Chorus) For treason, the Queen was led to the scaffold! There, her lover will fulfill his sacred duty! And from his balcony, the King sees the blood-red sunrise, And from now on, a lone wolf howls in his chest! How the sword glistens in the sun, striking without mercy! She cheated on him with the paladin who swore allegiance to him! (Guitar solo: melodic yet aggressive, conveying tragedy and fury) (Verse 2) He remembers the whispers in the alcove's gloom, And the forbidden wine of ardent oaths. Now he is a slave to a cruel law, Destiny has decreed their fate. The king frowns, clenching his fingers painfully, He curses this terrible moment. Two loyal knights—in the end, they turned out to be Traitors, whose sacred visage has faded! (Pre-Chorus) He raises his steel, hiding the trembling in his hands, Hate and torment are in his eyes! She reads her final sentence in his pupils, Love and death—a cruel science! (Chorus) For treason, the Queen was led to the scaffold! There, her lover will fulfill his sacred duty! And the King, from his balcony, sees the blood-red sunrise, And in his chest, a lone wolf howls! How the sword glistens in the sun, striking without mercy! She cheated on him with the paladin who swore allegiance to him! (Bridge: tempo slows, acoustic guitar or keyboards play) Three shadows in the square, three broken destinies, One blow will destroy three thrones. Prayers are too late, all pleas are in vain, When love becomes sedition! (Final chorus with redoubled energy and backing vocals) For treason, the Queen was led to the scaffold! There, her lover will fulfill his sacred duty! And the King, from his balcony, sees the blood-red sunrise, And in his chest, a lone wolf howls! How the sword gleams in the sun, striking without mercy! She cheated on him with a paladin who swore allegiance to him! (Outro: fading riffs, the sound of wind, and a lone bell ringing) Sworn allegiance to him... Sworn... to him...
