[Verse 1] Boots on the stone Dawn in our eyes Steel in the marrow Fire in the sky Hands on the line We do not bend One drum, one oath Right to the end
[Pre-Chorus] Hear that call Rising now Hold the ground Do not bow Hearts like drums Ready to break We step forward No time to wait
[Chorus] Raise the iron banner (iron banner) Stand and answer (stand and answer) Hear the thunder gather We are coming We are coming
[Verse 2] Rain on the shields Mud on the field Names in the echo Nothing revealed Cold in the lungs Heat in the veins Still we advance Through smoke and flame
[Pre-Chorus] Hear that call Rising now Hold the ground Do not bow Hearts like drums Ready to break We step forward No time to wait
[Chorus] Raise the iron banner (iron banner) Stand and answer (stand and answer) Hear the thunder gather We are coming We are coming
[Bridge] Ooh, the old walls shake Ooh, but they still hold March with the dawn March with the gold From every hill From every shore One voice, one beat Forevermore
[Final Chorus] Raise the iron banner (iron banner) Stand and answer (stand and answer) Hear the thunder gather We are coming We are coming Raise the iron banner (iron banner) Stand and answer (stand and answer) We are the thunder We are coming We are coming
