Something I Won’t Destroy

Let earth shake if they try to take you from my side!
[Morthyra] I want no king who rules by fear—
I want the man behind the destroyer here.
[Both] Through ash and storm, against eternity,
Two lost souls stand against infinity.
Though the world condemns us, though it wants us gone,
Not a thousand dragons can break what we’ve become.

I don’t ask you to change or forget the scars,
Or erase the wounds that made you fight so hard.
Just hear me: not every hand comes to betray.
You can turn the world to desolation,
Raise your wings against the sun—
But if you tire of fighting, you can cry with me.
Morthyra, I don’t know the words for love;
You’re the only thing I won’t destroy.

I can’t promise skies without a storm,
Or a tomorrow safe from pain.
Look at me: I’m not your salvation—
I choose you, too. Walk with me.
Though night may pull us worlds apart,
No time or gods can erase our hearts.

I thought the world deserved to end…
Then you came, Morthyra—and I had something I couldn’t destroy.
